Summary:
Sal is a young struggling magazine writer in Brooklyn, trying to overcome the humiliation of being conned by a playwright she profiled who wasn't quite what he seemed. Her life is further unmoored when she comes across a short story in The Paris Review written by Martin Keller, the much older writer who made a great impression on her years ago when their paths crossed one night at a reading. Much to her surprise, the piece is undeniably about her and their brief time together. Desperate to read more of the unpublished
novel
, she is shocked to learn that Martin has died, and his story published posthumously. But as her own life and relationships fall apart, Sal embarks on a quest to seek out Martin's widow, Moira, so she can read the rest of Martin's story. Her story. Over the course of a single summer, Sal will find herself increasingly drawn to the enigmatic Moira, a brilliant theoretical physicist who proves to be much more than she bargained for. And what she will discover is the larger, ever-shifting story of not just one marriage but two, as she unravels the hidden histories of those closest to Martin Keller and the secrets they all keep.
