Description
Paul Stevens is a seller of used books, a lover of Flaubert and Dickens, young and unsure of himself - until he meets Judith. But unsettling currents revolve around Judith. When Paul discovers that his brother Henry - a man most at home in pool halls and at the racetrack - has his own connections to Judith's secret world, the threads that tie him to the people he loves begin to connect in frightening ways. At the center of the web is one man who holds both Judith's and Henry's lives in his hands. Around this compelling portrait of a young man's coming of age in the disintegrating center of a big city, Matt Cohen has woven a deeply human story of relationships - of the intricacies of love and desire that hold lovers together, and the ambiguities of shared history that bind brothers and families.
