A widow’s New England peace is interrupted by her feelings for two
brilliant men, one much younger and the other quite older—and the
dilemma of choosing between them At forty-three, Edith has lost a
husband, and has children who have children of their own. Living in a
large Vermont house, her days are spent idly reading and playing
music. But all of this is to change when two candidates for her
affection arrive on the scene. The first is thirty years her senior, a
philosopher named Edwin with whom she enjoys an enriching intellectual
friendship. The second, Jared, is twenty years her junior: a handsome
scientist, he attracts Edith in mind and body. But even if Jared
shares her passion, does he have enough life experience to know
whether such a union is in his best interests? In this exquisite and
probing examination of desire, contrasting passions come to a
head. This ebook features an illustrated biography of Pearl S. Buck
including rare images from the author’s estate.
