520 "Celebrated by the Boston Globe as "a brilliant
anthropologist of the suburbs," the seductively weird and
darkly offbeat Lauren Acampora returns to the lush world
that got us all hooked on the NPR Best Book of the Year
The Wonder Garden, drawing us into the secret lives of a
polished Connecticut haven and jolting us with the sparks
that fly when those lives collide. Formerly a model and
photographer trying to make it in New York, Louisa Rader
is back in her affluent hometown of Nearwater, Connecticut,
where she's married to a successful older architect,
raising a preteen daughter, and trying to vitalize the
provincial local art center. As the years pass, she's
grown restless in her safe and comfortable routine,
haunted by the flash of the life she used to live. When
intense and intriguing young artist-environmentalist
Gabriel arrives in town with his aristocratic family, his
impact on the Raders has hothouse effects. As Gabriel
pushes to realize his artistic vision for the world, he
pulls both Louisa and her daughter Sylvie under his spell,
with consequences that disrupt the Raders' world forever.
A strange, sexy, and sinister novel of art and obsession,
in The Hundred Waters Acampora gives us an incisive, page-
turning story of ambition, despair, desire, and the price
of fulfillment and freedom at all costs"--|cProvided by
