520    "Radiant with beauty, longing, and desire, and deeply 
       touching, this literary novel, reminiscent of the works of
       William Trevor and Colm Tóibín, evokes the long love 
       affair between a man and a woman, each married to another,
       who meet every month in a decaying hotel in Coney Island, 
       Brooklyn.  These beautiful, carefully-rationed days have 
       long sustained Michael and Caitlin's love, and have helped
       help them survive the tedium of their lives separate from 
       each other. But now, amid the howling winds whipping off 
       the Atlantic, and a snow storm blackening the horizon, 
       this nearly abandoned resort feels like the edge of the 
       world. On this winter day, burrowed in their private 
       cocoon, they will discover that their lives are on the 
       brink of change.  Michael's wife is battling cancer, and 
       Caitlin's husband is about to receive a major promotion, 
       which will involve relocating to the Midwest. After half a
       lifetime together in their most intimate moments, certain 
       long-denied facts must be faced, decisions made, 
       consequences weighed and, maybe, just maybe, chances 
       finally taken."--Amazon.
