"All happy families resemble one another, each unhappy family is unhappy in its own way.” —Leo Tolstoy

As
a writer, Celia Bayley’s insights into the ways of the human heart made
her famous. And why not? She had married a handsome war hero and
produced three successful children. Yet, as her family gathers for her
funeral, the diaries and notebooks and letters she left behind paint a
very different picture, one that shocks those who loved her and will
force them to confront the difficult conflicts in their own lives.
A life torn by secrets is revealed. The husband she adored had deceived her early in their marriage and broken her heart, though they persevered as a family. Then, years later while on a trip with friends, she meets a man for whom she feels a passion she never believed possible. In one brief moment, her whole life is turned inside out.
Utterly compelling and beautifully written, The Affair makes vividly real the agonizing choice one woman must make. Powerful and moving, the novel is about marriage, families, and the definition of happiness.
