Los años cincuenta retratados por Richard Yates tienen demasiados parentescos con los tiempos que vivimos. El aislamiento que nace de la comodidad. La pérdida, muchas veces inconsciente, de valores que en algún momento parecían fundamentales. Brillantes, bellos y confundidos, Frank y April Wheeler tratan de sostener sus ideas incluso contra sí mismos y sus debilidades.

From the #1 New York Times bestselling author of Leaving Time, The Storyteller, and Nineteen Minutes... To the outside world, they seem to have it all. Cassie Barrett, a renowned anthropologist, and Alex Rivers, one of Hollywood's hottest actors, met on the set of a motion picture in Africa. They shared childhood tales, toasted the future, and declared their love in a fairy-tale wedding. But when they return to California, something alters the picture of their perfect marriage. A frightening pattern is taking shape—a cycle of hurt, denial, and promises, thinly veiled by glamour. Torn between fear and something that resembles love, Cassie wrestles with questions she never dreamed she would face: How can she leave? Then again, how can she stay?
