The Next Feast...
Susan Kelly
author of "By Accident" at Bove.
"Preceded by four successful novels of women's friendships, "By Accident" follows a year in the life of a woman after the accidental death of her teenage son. Concerned with randomness in relationships, in marriage, and in nature, the story poses tough questions: What constitutes betrayal between husband and wife? Can a savior be a lover? Are either ever justified? Even as the novel portrays a woman's loss, grief, and recovery, it examines how friendship can dangerously evolve into desire."
