Book summary

Nona's father left her and her mother when Nona was a child, and he died young. A painter, he has become more famous after death than when he was alive. Nona herself grew up and married Roy, a voice teacher, and they live placidly in Greenwich Village. But when Nona goes to a writing colony to finish a book on her father, she is approached by another married man named Lyle, who seduces her and persuades her to come to Santa Fe. There, she discovers Lyle's true nature--and her own.
