Meri is newly married, pregnant, and standing on the cusp of her
life as a wife and mother, recognizing with some terror the gap
between reality and expectation. Delia--wife of the two-term
liberal senator Tom Naughton--is Meri's new neighbor in the
adjacent New England town house. Tom's chronic infidelity has been
an open secret in Washington circles, but despite the complexity of
their relationship, the bond between them remains strong.
Soon Delia and Meri find themselves leading strangely parallel
lives, as they both reckon with the contours and mysteries of
marriage: one refined and abraded by years of complicated intimacy,
the other barely begun. With precision and a rich vitality, Sue
Miller--beloved and bestselling author of "While I Was
Gone"--brings us a highly charged, superlative novel about marriage
and forgiveness.
