Passionate undercurrents sweep in and out of this eloquent novel
about a love affair in the summer countryside in Italy and its
inevitable end. It takes place in a setting of pastoral beauty
during a time of celebration -- a festival. Sophie, half English,
half Italian, meets Tancredi, an Italian who is separated from his
wife and family. In telling the story of their love affair, author
Shirley Hazzard punctures the placid surface of polite Italian
society to reveal the intense yearnings and surprising responses in
sophisticated people caught up in emotions they do not always
understand.
