Throughout his career, Chris Bohjalian has earned a reputation for writing novels that examine some of the most important issues of our time. WithMidwives, he explored the literal and metaphoric place of birth in our culture. InThe Buffalo Soldier, he introduced us to one of contemporary literature's most beloved foster children. And inBefore You Know Kindness, he plumbed animal rights, gun control, and what it means to be a parent. Chris Bohjalian's riveting fiction keeps us awake deep into the night. AsThe New York Timeshas said, Few writers can manipulate a plot with Bohjalian's grace and power. Now he is back with an ambitious new novel that travels between Jay Gatsby's Long Island and rural New England, between the Roaring Twenties and the twenty-first century. When college sophomore Laurel Estabrook is attacked while riding her bicycle through Vermont's back roads, her life is forever changed. Formerly outgoing, Laurel withdraws into her photography and begins to work at a homeless shelter. There she meets Bobbie Crocker, a man with a history of mental illness and a box of photographs that he won't let anyone see. When Bobbie dies suddenly, Laurel discovers that he was telling the truth: before he was homeless, Bobbie Crocker was a successful photographer who had indeed worked with such legends as Chuck Berry, Robert Frost, and Eartha Kitt. As Laurel's fascination with Bobbie's former life begins to merge into obsession, she becomes convinced that some of his photographs reveal a deeply hidden, dark family secret. Her search for the truth will lead her further from her old life and into a cat-and-mouse game with pursuers who claim they want to save her. In this spellbinding literary thriller, rich with complex and compelling characters including Jay Gatsby and Daisy Buchanan Chris Bohjalian takes readers on his most intriguing, most haunting, and most unforgettable journey yet.
