One of the 100 Best Books of the Year, San Francisco Chronicle One
the Best Fiction Books of the Year, Kirkus Two ex-lovers, both
women, reunite decades after their passionate affair in this
tender, insightful novel about marriage, motherhood, and sexuality
Pages for Her is the story of two women, Flannery and Anne, each at
a personal turning point, and the circumstances that lead to their
reunion. Twenty years after their brief but passionate affair,
chronicled in Sylvia Brownrigg's earlier novel Pages for You,
Flannery has the chance once again to meet Anne, who opened young
Flannery up to the possibility of love-then left her heartbroken.
Having long ago put their love behind them, they live now on
opposite coasts. Anne has been in a deep, childless partnership
with a fellow scholar, Jasper, who recently left her. Flannery, to
her own surprise, married a charismatic artist named Charles, with
whom she has a young daughter. Submerged by her husband's demands
and personality and her adjustment to motherhood, Flannery has lost
sight of herself and her work. When the two women meet at a
conference, they find that the passion and understanding between
them has endured, though it has been hidden. In rediscovering each
other, they are able to rediscover themselves. Pages for Her is an
exhilarating, passionate work that explores marriage, sexuality,
and the transformative power of love over time. "Sharp observations
about motherhood and womanhood . . . Audacious, confident, smart,
seductive." -The New York Times Book Review
