Silence In October

After 18 years of marriage Astrid, the wife of the novel's narrator, has left home. Her departure leaves her art-historian husband feeling loss and loneliness that force him to reassess his life: not only his relationship with Astrid, but with their children, friends, his previous lovers, his work and perhaps most significantly himself.

Dupa 18 ani de casatorie, Astrid, sotia naratorului romanului, a plecat de acasa. Plecarea ei il lasa pe sotul ei, istoric de arta, simtind o pierdere si singuratate care il obliga sa-si reevalueze viata: nu numai relatia lui cu Astrid, ci si copiii lor, prietenii, iubitii sai anteriori, munca lui si poate cel mai semnificativ el insusi.
