Women's Fiction
The author of Indiscretion returns with a scorching tale of love, passion, and obsession, about one manβs 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, Wylieβs friendship with her brother, Aurelio, a budding painter of singular talent, brings him near Cescaβs circle. A young woman confident in her charms, Cesca is amused by Wylieβs youthful sensuality and trusting innocence. Toying with his devotion, she draws him closer to her fireβultimately 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 Cescaβs tempestuous, heart-wrenching affair, Charles Dubow probes the devastating depths of human passion and the nature of true love.
