The Senator's Wife -- Sue Miller

<b>NATIONAL BESTELLER - The <i>New York Times </i>bestselling author of <i>Monogomy </i>brings us a "tasteful, elegant, sensuous" (<i>The Boston Globe</i>) novel about marriage and forgiveness.<br></b><br>Meri is newly married, pregnant, and standing on the cusp of her life as a wife and mother, recognizing with some terror the gap between reality and expectation. Delia--wife of the two-term liberal senator Tom Naughton--is Meri's new neighbor in the adjacent New England town house. Tom's chronic infidelity has been an open secret in Washington circles, but despite the complexity of their relationship, the bond between them remains strong. <p/> Soon Delia and Meri find themselves leading strangely parallel lives, as they both reckon with the contours and mysteries of marriage: one refined and abraded by years of complicated intimacy, the other barely begun. With precision and a rich vitality, Sue Miller--beloved and bestselling author of <i>While I Was Gone</i>--brings us a highly charged, superlative novel.<br><br><b>Author:</b> Sue Miller<br><b>Publisher:</b> Knopf Doubleday Publishing Group<br><b>Published:</b> 01/06/2009<br><b>Pages:</b> 320<br><b>Binding Type:</b> Paperback<br><b>Weight:</b> 0.50lbs<br><b>Size:</b> 7.90h x 5.20w x 0.70d<br><b>ISBN:</b> 9780307276698<br><br><b>Review Citation(s): </b><br><i>New York Times Book Review</i> 01/11/2009 pg. 20<br><p><b>About the Author</b><br>SUE MILLER is the best-selling author of the novels <b>Lost in the Forest</b>, <b>Th
