The Circle of the Day
At 8:45 on the morning of her tenth wedding anniversary, that nice young Mrs. Millet got a phone call. A devoted friend simply had to tell dear Faith Millet about a most amusing incident. Seems she’d been riding in a taxi and, looking out the window, she’d seen Mr. Millet under the most delightfully extraordinary circumstances. Heavens, it was all so charming that she’d almost called out to him. Only of course it couldn’t have been Mr. Millet – considering what she saw.
As she listened, Faith knew, for the first time, a fact about her marriage so important and so frightening that every memory of the past ten years at once took on a different meaning.
Helen How’s novel follows Faith Millet through this one cruel day of discovery, shock, and choice. It is the story of a woman jolted into examining her own capacity for love. It is, as well, a sharply etched picture of that New York City crossroads where the Talented and the Socially Prominent somewhat warily meet.
