Eve's Longing: The Infinite Possibilities in All Things.

The Review of Contemporary Fiction | March 22, 1993| | Copyright

Not many words are wasted in this slender first novel, which enacts the downward spiral of its uniquely disturbed and disturbing central character, Eve. The "downward spiral" is one of Eve's preoccupations, as she dreams and also experiences the near endlessness of free-fall again and again in this novel where the line between freedom and predestination, as between dreams and experience, is given a sustaining vibrational twang. The spiral is also an organizing premise of the book, which moves from New York City to Assisi and back to New York again with its heroine.
