Description

A young woman stands at a crossroad: her father has recently died; she has left her husband; and more, recently, her lover has left her. Traveling east with her young daughter, she stops off to visit old friends and relatives, each of whom reflects a different facet of her own life. Having still to come to terms with past losses, Nikki is not yet prepared to face her future. Her trip is a kind of hiatus, a time during which no irrevocable decisions need be made, a time to consolidate and clarify. Each of the people she meets, each new situation, triggers a memory, reveals the past in a new light, prods a reassessment so that the novel becomes a tapestry of association whose design gains depth and richness as each new color is laid in. Finally, reader and narrator together come to see the pattern complete, to understand its meaning and so to be able to move on.
