Leaving – A Novel

Sarah and Warren's college love story ended in a single moment. Decades later, when a chance meeting brings them together again, a passion ignites-shaking the foundations of the lives they've built apart. Sarah is hesitant to reclaim a chance at love after her painful divorce, focusing instead on her career and grown children. Warren has no such reservations: he wants to leave his marriage but worries about how his wife and daughter will react. As their affair intensifies without resolution, Sarah and Warren must confront the moral responsibilities that complicate the demands of love.

Leaving charts a passage through loyalty and desire as it builds to a shattering conclusion. In her boldest work to date, Roxana Robinson brings "her compassionate clarity to this revelatory book about the price of love and the enduring need for it" (Amy Bloom, author of In Love).
