"What's new. What else. What next. What's happened here." Pitch
Dark, Renata Adler's follow-up to her prizewinning novel Speedboat,
is a book of questions. It is also a book of false starts, red
herrings, misunderstandings, and all-too-fleeting revelations. Kate
Ennis is poised at a critical moment in her affair with a married
lover, and moments (conversations, things unsaid,
misunderstandings) of that fraught relationship reverberate
throughout the novel, following Kate from her house in rural
Connecticut and her New York City brownstone apartment, to a small
island off the coast of Washington, and to an utterly dark road in
a remote corner of Ireland. Told in Adler's celebrated fragmented
style, and constructed from the bare-bones language of everyday
life, Pitch Dark transcends its parts to come to the kind of wisdom
achievable only after a relentless quest.
