Union Atlantic

A STRONG AND PROFOUND PORTRAIT OF THE FIRST DECADE OF THE 21ST CENTURY. To escape a painful past, ambitious Doug Fanning becomes a predator in the financial market and builds a mansion he can't fully inhabit. From atop the hill, in her chaotic old house, retired teacher Charlotte Graves discusses with two dogs the rise of the symbol of everything she most despises in American society: her neighbor's mansion. Young Nate will move between these two worlds, driven by desire and the emptiness left by his father's death. Visionary, ambitious, and irresistibly complex, Union Atlantic is a singular work that will surely be read and reread as a classic of our time. • “Beautiful prose and the impact of a high-quality thriller.” - USA Today • “A profound, intelligent, and surprising story.” - The Washington Post
