Аннотация

The new novel by the author of the best-selling Love, Dad is a love story, compelling and deeply felt, about a man who comes to terms with his own life and his own marriage through the death of his father. It is the story of David Weber, a successful middle-aged New Yorker, who has flown to Miami to be at his father’s hospital bedside; the story of the father. Morris, whose lingering illness and failing memory cannot quite drown his wit; the story of David’s own son. Stephen, whose death at a tragically young age has frozen his father’s heart. It is the story of three women: Bessie, Morris Weber’s new “friend,” whose existence David never even suspected; Hillary, the leggy Englishwoman David encounters in Miami, who tempts him more strongly than any woman ever has. except his wife; and Molly, David’s wife, at home in New York, wondering as David does what went wrong, what happened to the miracle.
As David’s father lies dying, David’s life takes on an emotional intensity he has never known. Far from the Sea is a novel in which compassion and excitement work hand and hand: a story laced with humor, sex, and irony, rich with the complexities of family ties. It is perhaps the most moving novel Evan Hunter has ever written.
