"Someone rang my husband. Your wife is not well, the person said. Your wife is not well."
When Clara's parents transplant her from Paris to New York at the age of sixteen, a fleeting encounter with a young man seems, for a brief period, to open up new possibilities. As she strives to fulfil her vocation as a writer, and as she struggles in later years with the cumulative constraints of an unhappy marriage, Clara's imagination is strangely haunted by a life that might have been. Tracing Clara's story from her adolescence to her experience of motherhood, and then through to a pivotal bid for freedom, Two Hours is an exceptional novel. Witty, perceptive, and profoundly humane, this is the work of a writer at the height of her powers.Languages:EnglishPublisher:ErisISBN-13:9781999798147ISBN-10:1999798147UPC:9781999798147Book Category:FictionBook Subcategory:Literary, Coming of Age, Family LifeBook Topic:Marriage & DivorceSize:9.00 x 4.70 x 0.60 inchesWeight:0.65Product ID:SCY6TWCVFR
