Описание Foreign Bodies

The collapse of her brief marriage has stalled Bea Nightingale'
s life, leaving her middle-aged and alone, teaching in an impoverished borough of 1950s New York. A plea from her estranged brother gives Bea the excuse to escape lassitude by leaving for Paris to retrieve a nephew she barely knows;
but the siren call of Europe threatens to deafen Bea to the dangers of entangling herself in the lives of her brother'
s family.
By one of America'
s great living writers, Foreign Bodies is a truly virtuosic novel. The story of Bea'
s travails on the continent is a fierce and heartbreaking insight into the curious nature of love: how it can be commanded and abused;
earned and cherished;
or even lost altogether.
