Two women, Chloe Dale, an artist comfortably ensconced in bucolic
suburbia, and Salome Drago, a wily, seductive refugee from a
country that no longer exists, confront each other in a Manhattan
restaurant, and the battle lines are drawn. Toby Dale, son of the
artist and ardent suitor of the refugee, is in no position to
choose sides. Outside, the drumbeats for the impending invasion of
Iraq drown out all argument, and those who object will soon be
reduced to standing in the street.
The story of two families--suspicious, territorial, naive in their
confidence that they are free of the past--"Trespass" unfolds with
commanding force. It is a bracing, tender novel for the 21st
century.
