The Forgotten Waltz

ebook

Winner of the 2012 Andrew Carnegie Award for Excellence in Fiction

"A tour de force."—Francine Prose, New York Times Book Review

"A new, unapologetic kind of adultery novel. Narrated by the proverbial other woman—Gina Moynihan, a sharp, sexy, darkly funny thirtysomething IT worker—The Forgotten Waltz charts an extramarital affair from first encounter to arranged, settled, everyday domesticity...This novel's beauty lies in Enright's spare, poetic, off-kilter prose—at once heartbreaking and subversively funny. It's built of starling little surprises and one fresh sentence after another. Enright captures the heady eroticism of an extramarital affair and the incendiary egomania that accompanies secret passion: For all their utter ordinariness, Sean and Gina feel like the greatest lovers who've ever lived." —Elle
