The Pilot’s Wife by Anita Shreve
Over 2,050 5-Star Reviews!
Anita Shreve’s hauntingly beautiful #1 bestseller and Oprah’s Book Club selection explores tragedy, grief, betrayal, and the impossibility of knowing another person.
As a pilot’s wife, Kathryn Lyons has learned to expect both intense exhilaration and long periods alone, but nothing has prepared her for the late-night knock that brings news of her husband’s death in a plane crash.
Until now, Kathryn’s life has been peaceful if unextraordinary: a satisfying job teaching high school in the New England mill town of her childhood, a picture-perfect home by the ocean, a precocious fifteen-year-old daughter, and a happy marriage whose occasional dull passages she attributes to the unavoidable deadening of time.
As Kathryn struggles with her grief, she descends into a maelstrom of publicity and relentless scrutiny of her husband’s life. Even before the plane is located in waters off the Irish coast, a bizarre personal mystery begins to emerge. Could there be any truth to the increasingly disturbing rumors that her husband had a secret life?
