It’s the autumn of discontent for David Berger-a season of mixed emotions. Retired after a lucrative but unfulfilling career, he lives alone by choice in a modest, sparsely furnished cottage in affluent Fairfield, Connecticut. True, he’s proud of finally becoming a published author-a lifelong dream-although he will admit good-naturedly that fame has eluded him. True, he still loves his wife, Mandy-but a decade ago, a tragic loss drove them apart. And now he watches with regret as their married son, Philip, is manipulated by a possessive, mercenary wife. Still, David hasn’t lost his sense of humor or his humanity. And he is determined to transform his autumn into spring-to reignite his romance with Mandy and rebuild their relationship with Philip. Surprisingly, the key to this transformation is a new friend, a fascinating, audacious, unpredictable lesbian author who insists on being the Muse for his latest novel. With her prodding encouragement, David’s book leads him on an intense, emotional journey through the sometimes funny, sometimes sad memories of his life and loves toward a better new day.
