One of our major novelists (Salman Rushdie) tells the story of a woman reflecting on her uncompromising life, and the life of a former lover, in this provocative novel.
With great candor and insight, Yiyun Li navigates the twin poles of grief and resilience, loss and rebirth, that compass a human heart..
This is a novel about life in all its messy glory, and of a life lived, by the extraordinary Lilia, absolutely on its own terms.
She returns inexorably to the memory of her daughter Lucy.
Increasingly obsessed with Roland\'s intimate history, Lilia begins to annotate the diary with her own rather different version of events, revealing the surprising, long-held secrets of her past.
Now she has turned her keen attention to the diary of a long-forgotten man named Roland Bouley, with whom she once had a fleeting affair.
