In this beautifully crafted novel from the author of the
critically-acclaimed Two Sisters, comes the story of a woman who
retreats into a fantasy world on New York City's Upper West Side as
she slowly loses her once whip-smart husband to dementia-perfect
for fans of Still Alice.When life falls apart, a little fantasy
goes a long way...It started as a dream vacation in Spain, with Fay
and Paul Agarra enjoying all the delights of a European holiday. A
respected New York City judge, Paul has always been the man Fay can
rely on, no matter what. When he inexplicably disappears from a
Barcelona street corner, Fay knows something is terribly wrong.
Once reunited, Paul shrugs off the episode as a simple
misunderstanding-but Fay suspects her almost perfect life has taken
a dark and sudden turn.Soon there are more signs that Paul is
beginning to change. Bouts of forgetfulness lead to mistakes in the
courtroom. Simple tasks cause unexplainable outbursts of anger.
Fay's worst suspicions are realized when she learns her husband-her
rock, her love, her everything-is succumbing to the ravages of
dementia. As her husband transforms before her very eyes, Fay copes
with her fears by retreating into a fantasy life filled with
promise instead of pain. In Fay's invented world, she imagines
herself living a glamorous life free from heartache, with a
handsome neighbor she barely knows rescuing her from a future she
can't accept. Poignant and beautifully crafted, Left is an
unforgettable tale about life's aching uncertainties-and a woman
who discovers that somewhere between hope and reality, an
unexpected future will find its way forward.
