For fans of Lisa Halliday and Susan Choi, The Anniversary is a
simmering page-turner about an ascendant writer, the unresolved
death of her husband, and what it takes to emerge on her
ownNovelist J.B. Blackwood is on a cruise with her husband,
Patrick, to celebrate their wedding anniversary. Her former
professor, film director, and cult figure, Patrick is much older
than J.B.. When they met, he seemed somehow ageless, as all gods
appear in the eyes of those who worship them. But now his success
is starting to wane and J.B. is on the cusp of winning a major
literary prize. Her art has been forever overseen by him, now it
may overshadow his.For days they sail in the sun, nothing but dark
water all around them. Then a storm hits and Patrick falls from the
ship. J.B. is left alone, as the search for what happened to
Patrick - and the truth about their marriage - begins.Propulsive
and fiercely intelligent, The Anniversary is exquisitely written
with a swift and addictive plot. It's a novel that asks: how
legible, in the mind of the writer, is the line between reality and
plot? How do we refuse the people we desire? And what is the cost,
to ourselves, to others and to our art, if we don't?
