The book of why : a novel

Montemarano, Nicholas, 1970-2014
Large Print
Eric Newborn is used to dealing with people whose lives are in crisis. When his wife dies, he finds that grief renders him helpless. He retreats, with his female dog, Ralph, to his isolated home on Martha's Vineyard. Five years later, on a wild, storm-wracked night, a car crashes at the end of Eric's lane and a woman turns up at his door, seeking help. Sam is a fan who has tracked him down, convinced that Eric will sort out the co-incidences that have both destroyed and coloured her life. As Eric and Sam spin around one another like constellations in a greater universe, they set out to search for answers to their questions, and to find some meaning in the signs that we all see.
