Publisher's Summary

Bloomsbury presents Monogamy by Sue Miller, read by Sue Miller.

Annie is not the first love of Graham’s life, but she is, he thinks, his last and greatest. Very recently, he has faltered; but he means to put it right. 

Here they are in marriage, in late middle age, in comfort. Mismatched, and yet so well matched: the bookseller with his appetite, his conviviality, his bigness; the photographer with her delicacy, her astuteness, her reserve. The children are offstage, grown up and scattered on either coast; Graham’s first wife, Frieda, is peaceably in their lives, but not between them. 

Then the unthinkable happens. Now Annie stumbles in the dark: did she know all there was to know about the man who loved her? If no marriage is without its small indiscretions, how great does a betrayal have to be to be to break it?

A novel about marriage, family, secrets and love, Monogamy confirms Sue Miller’s place among the greatest writers at work in America today.

What a ride!

The title “Monogamy”doesn’t foreshadow the emotions you will experience. It is woven with stark realities of life, loss of various forms and examines the greatest loss of all, death.
What a treat to have the author narrate her own work!
Thank you Sue.
