Leaving Zusammenfassung

Leaving Roxana Robinson

'What does love demand of us, and who must pay the price?' Joan Silber

High school sweethearts, Sarah and Warren, have grand plans for an adventurous future together, but when a misunderstanding causes them to part ways, they end up marrying other people.

When they meet again at sixty, their lives have been carved into very different shapes. Sarah lives outside New York; Warren lives in Boston. Sarah is divorced, Warren still married, and both have grown up children. When they reconnect, they feel the rekindled spark of love and desire - a spark that has been dead for so long. But are they willing to risk destroying all that they have built separately for the chance of a future together?

Leaving Bewertungen

'As absorbing as it is haunting... These two twined characters and their story will certainly stay with me for a long time.'

-- Meg Wolitzer, author of The Wife

'Compelling, heartstopping and all-too-believable, this is a marvelous read.'

-- Gish Jen, author of The Resisters

'A searing interrogation of honor and passion. It dissects the hidden cost of the choices we make, and the consequences with which we must endeavor to live.'

-- Geraldine Brooks, author of Horse

'Robinson brings her wit, her beautiful sentences and her compassionate clarity to this book about the price of love and the enduring need for it.'

-- Amy Bloom, author of White Houses

'Leaving is a remarkable novel-a quietly expansive story, in which elements of love and family coalesce and escalate into tragedy... A triumph of a book.'

-- Joan Silber, author of Improvement
