When Charles Callahan chances on a newspaper photograph of Sian Richards, a woman he loved when they were both only thirteen, he is hardly in a position to do anything about it. He has been faithfully married for years and his Rhode Island real estate business has been hit hard by the recession. He is scrambling to stave off bankruptcy and save his house. But Charles cannot resist the hand of fate. He writes to Sian, now a poet living with a family of her own on a farm in upstate New York. Three decades after they last saw each other, the two lovers meet. Powerfully drawn together once again, Charles and Sian are forced to come to terms with the nature of erotic love and betrayal, moral quandaries in an age of shifting values, and the elusive nature of time. Struggling to reclaim what once they lost, they set in motion a passionate and tumultuous series of events that moves to a shocking conclusion.

Anita Shreve writes beautiful, insightful novels. This one is about a middle aged man and woman, who are both married to others, and have children. They happen to find each other. They begin to correspond secretly, knowing where it will lead. The book captures the selfishness of adultery, and the madness that overtakes a person when they feel they are "in love" finally, but married to the wrong person. They'll do anything to be together. I've seen this many times. It's tragic, all around, as you see that once again, their timing is wrong in relation to each other, with great consequence to their families. If people would put as much effort into improving the marriage they're in, instead of chasing dreams of unfulfilled romances, there would be fewer broken families. I'm not unromantic, but don't wedding vows mean anything? Also, if this couple had had cell phones, it wouldn't have ended as it did, but then, it was written in 1993
