'One of the most emotionally truthful novels I have ever read'
DAISY BUCHANAN'An invaluably moving book' JULIET NICOLSON'One to
read first for the story and then to re-read at leisure and marvel
at how real these people feel' ERIN KELLY'Penetrating, intelligent,
humane, funny too ... Smart and powerfully alive' TESSA HADLEYAnnie
is not the first love of Graham's life but she is, he thinks, his
last and greatest. Very recently, he has faltered, but he means to
put it right.Here they are in marriage, in late middle age, in
comfort. Mismatched, and yet so well matched: the bookseller with
his appetite, his conviviality, his bigness, the photographer with
her delicacy, her astuteness, her reserve. The children are
offstage, grown up and scattered on either coast, Graham's first
wife, Frieda, is peaceably in their lives, but not between
them.Then the unthinkable happens. Now Annie stumbles in the dark:
did she know all there was to know about the man who loved her? If
no marriage is without its small indiscretions, how great does a
betrayal have to be to be to break it? A novel about marriage,
family, secrets and love, Monogamy confirms Sue Miller's place
among the greatest writers at work in America today.
