Reviews
In rueful, witty, unpredictable and compassionate prose, Enright gives expression to subtle, affecting shades of human interaction., A gorgeous critique of Ireland as the Celtic Tiger draws its dying breaths . . . [A] masterful and deeply satisfying novel., Everything in [The Forgotten Waltz] is perfectly engineered, and it's so beautifully written that you could read it once just for the dazzle of the prose, then start over for the content...[T]his book makes me feel that Enright could do anything...It's hard to say which is more satisfying about this book: its emotional complexities or the frugal elegance of its prose...I suggest you climb into this book, lean back and trust Enright to take you wherever she wants to go., An achingly brilliant piece of writing on passion and delusion...Enough to restore your faith in the power of fiction., Enright--wistful, equivocal, angry--gives voice to her characters with remarkable sympathy and precision, and she is never heavy-handed in tracing the connections between the private and public lives of capital., Anne Enright tells a funny, dark, no-judgments tale of rapture and ambivalence...The real magic is in Enright's prose, which burrows into characters like fingernails into skin, peeling back the hidden layers of ordinary interactions and momentary thoughts., A gorgeous critique of Ireland as the Celtic Tiger draws its dying breaths...[A] masterful and deeply satisfying novel., Exhilarating...[The Forgotten Waltz] explores a life-altering affair between two seemingly unremarkable Irish professionals with such exquisite attention, honesty, and wit as to make every sentence throb with life., Casting aside cultural bromides about the immorality of affairs, Enright puts us squarely in the center of a terrible truth: Love can be miraculous--and still destroy everything in its path., Enright's razor-sharp writing turns every ordinary detail into a weapon, to create a story that cuts right to the bone.

Synopsis
"A new, unapologetic kind of adultery novel. Narrated by the proverbial other woman--Gina Moynihan, a sharp, sexy, darkly funny thirtysomething IT worker-- The Forgotten Waltz charts an extramarital affair from first encounter to arranged, settled, everyday domesticity...This novel's beauty lies in Enright's spare, poetic, off-kilter prose--at once heartbreaking and subversively funny. It's built of starling little surprises and one fresh sentence after another. Enright captures the heady eroticism of an extramarital affair and the incendiary egomania that accompanies secret passion: For all their utter ordinariness, Sean and Gina feel like the greatest lovers who've ever lived." -- Elle, Winner of the 2012 Andrew Carnegie Award for Excellence in Fiction "A tour de force."--Francine Prose, New York Times Book Review, "A new, unapologetic kind of adultery novel.

- w***e (226)- Feedback left by buyer.Past 6 monthsVerified purchaseItem received as advertised in new, perfect condition. Shrink wrapped and well packaged for shipment and delivered quickly. The book is in beautiful condition and sold at a fair price. I am very happy with this purchase. Great seller!
- t***6 (332)- Feedback left by buyer.Past 6 monthsVerified purchaseItem was listed as brand new. When the item arrived it was packaged in cellophane shrink wrap; however, it was definitely not in new condition as the covers had scuffs and there was writing on the first page that had been erased. The seller offered a full refund if I returned the book, and even offered free return shipping. I thank him for that. I’m not able to use that option due to a class I need this book for so this transaction gets a neutral rating.Introduction to Stellar Astrophysics: Volume 3 (#255633352002)
- i***m (476)- Feedback left by buyer.Past monthVerified purchaseOverall, my experience was positive. This book was listed as New condition in shrink wrap. The book was most certainly not new - there was a sticker residue on the inside and some pages were stained. The shrink wrap was not placed on it by the publishers. Someone wrapped it in saran wrap later. The book was generally in fine condition and the packaging was sufficient - mailer with cardboard supports. Not sure why listing offers best offer choice if best offer is 1 dollar less than full price.
