Résumé
&“A more-than-welcome return to a classic idea of the novel . . . A wonder to read&” (Los Angeles Times Book Review). The field is all around us. It&’s our needs and our wants. This is what George tells Lydia. A disturbance,… however, is something that keeps us from grasping and attaining the things we need. Usually, we can adapt to these disturbances and move forward. But, what happens if a disturbance becomes too great to move past? In this entrancing tale of loss and understanding, acclaimed author Lynne Sharon Schwartz plots the course of a woman&’s life, through the cycles of love, loss, and acceptance. Lydia&’s early life is marked by calm constants: a house in Cape Cod, a philosophy group in college. These remain her touchstones as she becomes a busy wife, mother, and music teacher. But when her family&’s world is suddenly shattered, she struggles to regain her equilibrium. Will she be able to find her way in such a radically altered field?
