Synopsis

The night he discovers Laura Pettit standing at his windowsill, Paul is eleven years old and already adept at the art of watching the world. Laura is twenty-two, a fiercly passionate and independent poet experiencing the first flickers of fame, a beautiful woman on the brink of seducing Paul's father. No matter; Paul is smitten. That night, Laura issues Paul a wholly impossible command, one that will haunt and consume both of them for the rest of their lives. 'Forget me'. Laying bare the inner life of one man during the course of nearly four decades, Larry Watson delivers a riveting treatise on the excruciating power of love - and two of the most remarkable characters in recent fiction.
