| Summary: | This novel follows Christine, a writer touring for her debut book, which draws on a past relationship with a former professor. While traveling, she reflects on questions of artistic creation, ethics, and personal responsibility through conversations with acquaintances, former partners, and strangers. Christine's reflections are disrupted when the professor who inspired her novel contacts her after a long period of silence, initiating a renewed exchange. When he invites her to visit him on a remote island off the coast of Maine, Christine is forced to confront issues of power, authorship, and control over personal narratives. The novel explores the complexities of intimacy, memory, and the boundaries between lived experience and artistic representation. |
