Pitch Dark by Renata Adler

Pitch Dark by Renata Adler

What's new. What else. What next. What's happened here.

Pitch Dark is a book about love. Kate Ennis is poised at a critical moment in an affair with a married man. The complications and contradictions pursue her from a house in rural Connecticut to a brownstone apartment in New York City, to a small island off the coast of Washington, to a pitch black night in backcountry Ireland.

Composed in the style of Renata Adler's celebrated novel Speedboat and displaying her keen journalist's eye and mastery of language, both simple and sublime, Pitch Dark is a bold and astonishing work of art.

Renata Adler's career as a reporter, novelist, and short story writer, intellectual gadfly, and New Yorker staffer is unsurpassed. She was a Guggenheim Fellow, a Fulbright Scholar, a Woodrow Wilson Scholar, and the film critic for The New York Times after receiving her education at Bryn Mawr, Harvard, the Sorbonne, and Yale Law School. She lives in New York and is the author of prize-winning short stories, a prize-winning novel (Speedboat), a number of other highly regarded books, and innumerable admired and controversial pieces for journals such as The New Yorker, The New York Review of Books, The Atlantic Monthly, National Review, New Republic, and others.
