Women's Fiction
The author of Indiscretion returns with a scorching tale of
love, passion, and obsession, about one man’s all-consuming
desire for a beautiful, bewitching, and beguiling woman. Since childhood, Wylie Rose has been drawn to the charming,
close-knit Bonet siblings. But none affected him more than
the enchanting Cesca, a girl blessed with incandescent
beauty and a wild, irrepressible spirit. Growing up, Wylie’s friendship with her brother, Aurelio, a
budding painter of singular talent, brings him near Cesca’s
circle. A young woman confident in her charms, Cesca is
amused by Wylie’s youthful sensuality and trusting
innocence. Toying with his devotion, she draws him closer
to her fire—ultimately ruining him for any other woman. Spanning several decades, moving through the worlds of high
society, finance, and art, and peopled with poignant
characters, Girl in the Moonlight takes us on a whirlwind
tour, from the wooded cottages of old East Hampton to the
dining rooms of Upper East Side Manhattan to the bohemian
art studios of Paris and Barcelona. As he vividly brings to
life Wylie and Cesca’s tempestuous, heart-wrenching affair,
Charles Dubow probes the devastating depths of human
passion and the nature of true love.
