Why is it easier for a woman to be a muse than to have one? Can one
be fully creative—in art or life—without the inspiration of
erotic love? These are the questions asked in The Geometry of Love,
a novel set in New York in the 1980s, then fast-forwarding to
Northern California 20 years later. Julia, an aspiring poet, is
living with her British boyfriend Ben, a restrained professor at
Princeton, when she has a chance meeting with Michael, a long-ago
friend. A charismatic composer, Michael was once a catalyzing muse
for her, but now returns as a destabilizing influence. Julia longs
to become involved with Michael, but hesitates to give up the
security of her relationship with Ben. When Michael signals he is
too wounded to make a commitment, Julia turns her triangular
situation into a square by setting him up with a cousin. In the
process she discovers, as Pascal once said, that ""the heart has
its reasons which reason does not know."" This deeply psychological
tale explores the surprising ways we make romantic choices.
