Genevieve Drive Me Crazy by Eric Jerome Dickey ISBN: 0525948783 Price: 24.95 View Basket Availability: Usually ships within 24 hours. Publisher/ Date: Penguin Group / May 2005 Format: Hardcover
Synopsis:
Eric Jerome Dickey's original voice has made him one of today's hottest writers of contemporary fiction. Dickey never fails to leave his readers breathless and wanting more with books that have been lauded as “provocative and complex” by Ebony magazine and “smart, gritty, and gripping” by Publishers Weekly. Now, the New York Times bestselling author delivers GENEVIEVE, a powerful new novel about love, betrayal, and a woman's desperate need to leave her past behind.
Through the eyes of her husband (our narrator), we see Genevieve Forbes. Beautiful, brilliant, and successful, she is a woman who fled her unhappy small-town life in Alabama and never looked back. Years later she has a new name, a man who worships her, and no regrets-- until a phone call from home interrupts the peace of her new life, forcing her to return to the South and the people she left behind. Accompanying his enigmatic wife on her journey, Genevieve's husband comes up against the shocking and painful truths about her past, and finds himself in uncharted territory when he is drawn into a steamy affair... with his wife's sister. As Genevieve struggles to face her memories and bury the dead, her husband must come to terms with his betrayal and make a terrible choice: Can he seek forgiveness from the woman he knows, loves, and admires? Or is he destined to follow the one that set his heart aflame? A smoldering story delivered in stylish prose, GENEVIEVE is full of the raw emotion and human soul that we have come to expect from the novels of Eric Jerome Dickey. Taut with contemporary social issues, unforgettable characters, and a plot that remains surprising to the last page, Dickey's latest book features a journey—and a woman—you won't soon forget.
