The Story of a Marriage


Our first book club read for the rapidly approaching end of summer is a short novel (195 pages)written by Andrew Sean Greer. The story is set in the Sunset District of San Francisco in the early 50's during an era still freshly tasting of war and politcial and racial repression. The main character is a woman named Pearlie Cook who finds herself questioning her marriage and whether she knows her husband at all after a stranger knocks on her door.
