About this product
Product Information
With two novels and one short story collection published to overwhelming critical acclaim ("Monkeystakes your breath away," said Anne Tyler; "heartbreaking, exhilarating," raved theNew York Times Book Review), Susan Minot has emerged as one of the most gifted writers in America, praised for her ability to strike at powerful emotional truths in language that is sensual and commanding, mesmerizing in its vitality and intelligence. Now, with Evening, she gives us her most ambitious novel, a work of surpassing beauty. During a summer weekend on the coast of Maine, at the wedding of her best friend, Ann Grant fell in love. She was twenty-five. Forty years later--after three marriages and five children--Ann Lord finds herself in the dim claustrophobia of illness, careening between lucidity and delirium and only vaguely conscious of the friends and family parading by her bedside, when the memory of that weekend returns to her with the clarity and intensity of a fever-dream.Eveningunfolds in the rushlight of that memory, as Ann relives those three vivid days on the New England coast, with motorboats buzzing and bands playing in the night, and the devastating tragedy that followed a spectacular wedding. Here, in the surge of hope and possibility that coursed through her at twenty-five--in a singular time of complete surrender--Ann discovers the highest point of her life. Superbly written and miraculously uplifting,Eveningis a stirring exploration of time and memory, of love's transcendence and of its failure to transcend--a rich testament to the depths of grief and passion, and a stunning achievement. From the Hardcover edition.

Reviews
"Her best work yet, assured, supple, exhilarating in its nerve and cool momentum" --Joan Didion "A stunning novel...a powerful story that cuts back and forth in time to give us both the defining moment in a woman's life and an understanding of how that moment has reverberated through the remainder of her days...Her evocation of her heroine's passion for Harris Arden is so convincing, her depiction of the world she inhabits is so fiercely observed...The difference between [MonkeysandEvening] attests to Susan Minot's growing ambition and assurance as an artist" --Michiko Kakutani,New York Times "An absorbing drama...Minot writes with quiet perceptiveness and grace, pulling the reader into Ann's deathbed reverie" --Elle "A brilliant lyric performance" --John Casey "In spare and lovely language, Susan Minot has set forth a real life, in all its particularity and splendor and pain. This is the task of the novelist, and in Evening Minot has succeeded admirably" --Roxana Robinson,New York Times Book Review "It astounds in its craftsmanship and imprints itself indelibly on the heart...A haunting work of art that moves at the pace of a suspense thriller" --Sheila Bosworth,New Orleans Times-Picayune "Evening is a beautifully realized work...more mature and confident than anything she has written...An exquisite novel" --Gail Caldwell, Boston Globe "A wonderful, truthful, heartbreaking book. . ..Eveningvindicates the wildest assertions any of us have made about Susan Minot's talent" --Tom McGuane "Evening is a supremely sensual, sensitive and dramatic novel...So rich in color and motion, music and atmosphere" --Donna Seaman,Booklist "I was swept up in it...It moved me and made me cry" --D. T. Max,New York Observer From the Hardcover edition.

- b***k (1166)- Feedback left by buyer.Past monthVerified purchaseNice book. Quality as described. Received only two of the four items I ordered. Upon inquiry the seller apologized and said the missing books were no longer available and had been sold to another buyer at the same time even tho I had paid and received tracking information indicating all four were packaged together. They promptly refunded me. This was an unusual occurrence and I will continue to purchase used books from this seller. Great prices and extensive selections. Xlnt customer service!
