Fiction
Noah wants to go home. A seemingly easy request from most
four year olds. But as Noah's single-mother, Janie, knows,
nothing with Noah is ever easy. One day the pre-school
office calls and says Janie needs to come in to talk about
Noah, and no, not later, now - and life as she knows it stops. For Jerome Anderson, life as he knows it has stopped. A
deadly diagnosis has made him realize he is approaching the
end of his life. His first thought - I'm not finished yet.
Once a shining young star in academia, a graduate of Yale
and Harvard, a professor of psychology, he threw it all away
because of an obsession. Anderson became the laughing stock
of his peers, but he didn't care - something had to be going
on beyond what anyone could see or comprehend. He spent his
life searching for that something else. And with Noah, he
thinks he's found it. Soon Noah, Janie and Anderson will find themselves knocking
on the door of a mother whose son has been missing for eight
years - and when that door opens, all of their questions
will be answered. Sharon Guskin has written a captivating, thought-provoking
novel that explores what we regret in the end of our lives
and hope for in the beginning, and everything in between. In
equal parts a mystery and a testament to the profound
connection between a child and parent, THE FORGETTING TIME
marks the debut of a major new talent.
