Description

"Compulsively readable, memorable, and wise." -- Nancy Richler, author of the Giller Prize Finalist The Imposter Bride On a Boston street one warm spring day, Hazel and Remy spot each other for the first time in years. Although their brief meeting may seem insignificant, behind them lie two decades in which their life paths have crisscrossed, diverged and ultimately interlaced. Remy, a gifted violinist, is married to the composer Nicholas Elko--once the love of Hazel's life. It has been twenty years since Remy, an ambitious conservatory student; Nicholas, a wunderkind launching an international career; and his wife, the beautiful and fragile Hazel, first came together, tipping their collective world on its axis. As their story unfolds, and they find themselves linked anew by a final secret, each discovers the surprising ways in which the quest to create something real and true--be it a work of art or one's own life--can lead to the most personal of revelations. Lyrical and evocative, Sight Reading explores mysteries of intuition and perception while unspooling a transporting story of marriage, family and the secrets we keep, even from ourselves.
