Description:

“What’s new. What else. What next. What’s happened here.” *Pitch Dark* is a book about love. Kate Ennis is poised at a critical moment in an affair with a married man. The complications and contradictions pursue her from a house in rural Connecticut to a brownstone apartment in New York City, to a small island off the coast of Washington, to a pitch black night in backcountry Ireland. Composed in the style of Renata Adler’s celebrated novel *Speedboat* and displaying her keen journalist’s eye and mastery of language, both simple and sublime, *Pitch Dark* is a bold and astonishing work of art.
