Title : The Monhegan Lighthouse - Richard Russo - book
Summary :
A man rediscovers his missing wife through the eyes of her lover and falls in love all over again. While writing her memoirs, a nun understands the secret of her birth; during a trip, an old professor measures the distance that separates him from his wife... These are the stories that populate this collection, moments of existence where the masks fall and the characters finally stop lying to each other. Richard Russo's skill is to always capture this fragile moment where doubt sets in before certainties topple. With delicacy, often with humor, he offers his characters the hope of a peaceful life.
"Russo questions the passing of time, lies and silences, this strange cement that holds couples together. He has a music all his own. It seems as simple as anything. It requires incredible talent."
Eric Neuhoff, Figaro Madame
