Fiction
An unforgettable novel about love–and the first work of
fiction by the author of the groundbreaking nonfiction
bestseller In a Different Voice
Kyra is an
architect, involved in a project to design a new city.
Andreas, a theater director, is staging an innovative
production of the opera Tosca. Both have come through
political upheaval and personal loss. Neither wants to fall
in love. Yet when she asks him, “What is the opposite of
losing?” and he says, “Finding,” it galvanizes a powerful
attraction, and they risk opening themselves to love once
again.
When their love affair leads to a shocking
betrayal, Kyra’s fierce determination to see under the
surface, to know what was true and real, brings her to
Greta, a remarkable therapist. As the therapy itself repeats
the themes of love and loss, Kyra challenges its structure,
and the struggle that ensues between the two women opens the
way to a larger understanding.
Passionate and revolutionary, Kyra is an exquisitely
written love story, imbued with gentle humor. This is an
extraordinary work of fiction by one of the most brilliant
writers of our time.
