Description:
<DIV><DIV><b>Three masterful tales of women in the grips of complicated and dangerous loves</b></div><DIV><i><BR>The Rest of Life</i> is comprised of three spellbinding novellas about women in love. In <i>Immaculate Man</i>, an agnostic New York divorcée finds herself in thrall to an unexpected passion for a Catholic priest—who is also desired by a former superior—and who becomes unmoored by the affair. <i>Living at Home</i> is set in London, and depicts the strange union between an English woman—a thrice-divorced doctor who works with autistic children—and an Italian man—a free-roaming journalist addicted to high-risk assignments. The title novella centers on the memories of an elderly Italian woman, recalling her days as a girl in the bloom of first love, who embarked on a suicide pact with her boyfriend, but was the only one not to follow through.  <BR></div><DIV></div></div>
