520 | _aJoana has been brought up to believe that if she does the right thing, happiness will be hers. Now, she is coming to understand that life is determined as much as chance as by careful control. If only she can be assured of loving and being loved. But the love she finds is more than the romance she dreamed about as a girl. It is the guilty but savored passion of an affair with a married man, the poignant caring for an aging father, the visceral bonding between mother and child. Held in an intricate web of emotions, she must understand and encompass it as a woman, a lover, a wife and a mother. | ||
