À propos de ce contenu audio
"A literary tour de force . . . an irresistible read."—Daphne Merkin
"A remarkable work by a remarkable writer."—Gish Jen
Boston, 1969. Eve, a dancer whose feelings are expressed through the body and movement, senses an inexplicable distance growing between herself and her husband, Gabe, a journalist and father of her two children. Feeling lost and alone, she begins an affair; Gabe detects it immediately and begins one himself. Yet somehow they find their way back to each other, and when Eve gives birth to a daughter, their marriage becomes vital again.
Years later, when Gabe returns from a reporting trip to the Middle East and Berlin, Eve again perceives something is wrong in her marriage. Gabe no longer seems like the man she once knew. He has always had a darkness she could not fathom—deep psychological scars from his childhood, when Gabe escaped Nazi Germany on the Kindertransport.
Amsterdam, 1991. Newly separated from Gabe, Eve has accepted a fellowship to choreograph a dance inspired by the story of Adam and Eve. When a colleague introduces her to a new translation of the ancient text, Eve begins to redefine the way she thinks about women, men, and relationships—and, perhaps, to see another path back to her marriage.
In this emotionally riveting novel, Carol Gilligan draws on her unsurpassed psychological understanding of women's lives to explore a new vision of love and intimacy. Sweeping across decades and continents, Solstice is a provocative and profound portrait of what it takes to truly love another.

Commentaires
“Love, life, and art, each feeding and being fed by the next—no one draws the connections like Carol Gilligan. Solstice is a remarkable work by a remarkable writer, in whose generative hands head meets, at last, heart.”—Gish Jen
“A literary tour de force and an imaginative rendition of the themes that have always occupied Carol Gilligan, including the role of gender, especially in intimate relationships, and a questioning of the patriarchal reading of the world. But for all its wide-ranging themes, Solstice is first and foremost an irresistible read, an immersive story of a group of characters who are impinged upon by real-life events in addition to their own interior motives and impulses. Gilligan brings her wisdom, empathy, and humor to bear upon the conflicts and desires that stir in each of us, and in so doing helps show us a way toward embracing the pleasures and connections that link us to this embattled world.”—Daphne Merkin
