A small gem of a novel about a couple facing divorce and struggling to find peace with their decision. On the day of their divorce the wife returns to the small hotel in New Orleans where they first spent the night together, while the husband takes his new girlfriend for a romantic weekend at a nearby Creole mansion. The story moves back and forth between the two as they each find themselves haunted by memories of their life together. Not only a poignant drama about love and loss but a beautifully written page-turner by a Pulitzer Prize-winning author.
