Attachment (Electronic book text)

Ariveting first novel that reaches across the Indian Ocean to London and New York, and into the most confounding precincts of the human heart.
Jean Hubbard is a health columnist; her husband, Mark, a successful advertising executive. After more than twenty years together, they revel in a sabbatical on a remote tropical island. But when Jean discovers a salacious love letter addressed to Mark, she realizes that she has misdiagnosed some acute pathologies in her own life. The long idyll of their mutual ease is over -- but a more vivid and compelling quest has just begun. Assured, funny, tender, and provocative, "Attachment "is unflinching in its depiction of desire and the nature of love.
