Aquamarine -- Carol Anshaw

<p>Olympic swimmer Jesse Austin is seduced and consequently edged out for a gold medal by her Australian rival. From there, Anshaw intricately traces three possible paths for Jesse, spinning exhilarating variations on the themes of lost love and parallel lives unlived. Dorothy Allison, author of Bastard Out of Carolina, writes, I found myself wishing I could buy a dozen copies and start a discussion group, just so I'd be able to debate all the questions this astonishing novel provokes. A Reader's Guide is available.</p><br><br><b>Author:</b> Carol Anshaw<br><b>Publisher:</b> Harper Perennial<br><b>Published:</b> 11/14/1997<br><b>Pages:</b> 208<br><b>Binding Type:</b> Paperback<br><b>Weight:</b> 0.70lbs<br><b>Size:</b> 9.10h x 6.05w x 0.56d<br><b>ISBN:</b> 9780395877555<br><br><b>Review Citation(s): </b><br><i>New York Times</i> 11/30/1997 pg. 32
