The bestselling author of The Inner Circle and
Drop City returns with a timely new novel about a
woman in desperate pursuit of a man who has stolen her
identity
The first time Bridger saw Dana she
was dancing barefoot, her hair aflame in the red glow of the
club, her body throbbing with rhythms and cross-rhythms that
only she could hear. He was mesmerized. That night they were
both deaf, mouthing to each other over the booming bass. And
it was not until their first date, after he had agonized
over what CD to play in the car, that Bridger learned that
her deafness was profound and permanent. By then, he was
falling in love. Now she is in a courtroom, her legs
shackled, as a list of charges is read out. She is accused
of assault with a deadly weapon, auto theft, and passing bad
checks, among other things. Clearly there has been a
terrible mistake. A man--his name is William "Peck" Wilson
as Dana and Bridger eventually learn--has been living a
blameless life of criminal excess at Dana's expense. And as
Dana and Bridger set out to find him, they begin to test to
its limits the life they have started to build together.
Talk Talk is both a thrilling road trip
across America and a moving story about language, love, and
identity from one of America's finest novelists.
