Women's Fiction Contemporary
With a viewpoint that shifts as crisply as cards in the
hands of a blackjack dealer, Carol Shields introduces us to
two shell-shocked veterans of the wars of the heart. There's
Fay, a folklorist whose passion for mermaids has kept her
from focusing on any one man. And right across the street
there's Tom, a popular radio talk-show host who has focused
a little too intently, having married and divorced three
times.
Can Fay believe in lasting love with such a man? Will
romantic love conquer all rational expectations? Only Carol
Shields could describe so adroitly this couple who fall in
love as thoroughly and satisfyingly as any Victorian couple
and the modern complications that beset them in this
touching and ironic book.
