He was going to lose the house and everything in it.The rare
pleasure of a bath, the copper pots hanging above the
kitchen island, his family-again he would lose his family.
He stood inside the house and took stock. Everything in it
had been taken for granted. How had that happened again? He
had promised himself not to take anything for granted and
now he couldn't recall the moment that promise had given way
to the everyday.Tim Farnsworth is a handsome, healthy man,
aging with the grace of a matinee idol. His wife Jane still
loves him, and for all its quiet trials, their marriage is
still stronger than most. Despite long hours at the office,
he remains passionate about his work, and his partnership at
a prestigious Manhattan law firm means that the work he does
is important. And, even as his daughter Becka retreats
behind her guitar, her dreadlocks and her puppy fat, he
offers her every one of a father's honest lies about her
being the most beautiful girl in the world. He loves his
wife, his family, his work, his home. He loves his kitchen.
And then one day he stands up and walks out. And keeps
walking.THE UNNAMED is a dazzling novel about a marriage and
a family and the unseen forces of nature and desire that
seem to threaten them both. It is the heartbreaking story of
a life taken for granted and what happens when that life is
abruptly and irrevocably taken away.
