Opplysninger | Ruth Cole is a complex, often self-contradictory character, a "difficult" woman. Ruth's story is told in three parts, each focusing on a crucial time in her life. When we first meet her, on Long Island, in the summer of 1958, Ruth is only four. The second window into Ruth's life opens in the fall of 1990, when Ruth is an unmarried woman whose personal life is not nearly as successful as her literary career. She distrusts her judgment in men, for good reason. Finally, in the autumn of 1995, Ruth Cole is a forty-one-year-old widow and mother, and she's about to fall in love for the first time.
