<p><P>Focusing on a richly significant time in our recent past, Sebastian Faulks, the bestselling author of <i>Birdsong</i> and <i>Charlotte Gray</i>, has written his first novel set in America.

Nearly forty, Mary has spent a lifetime as a loyal daughter, wife and mother. But in this year of so much change, she feels compelled to break away from her familiar world and is drawn to the freedom of New York City, which is effervescent with parties, jazz, three- martini lunches, girls in their summer dresses and men in their Sinatra hats and big ties.

Mary finds a hotel room in New York and then finds a lover, while back
