The more Lorna tries to get Adam to talk, the more he withdraws. He refers to himself as “A” for “anti-matter” and insists that Lorna do the same. Three weeks before the story opens, he abruptly returns home from college after an incident that he refuses to discuss. Lorna’s son Adam is creative, passionate, and uncomfortable in his own skin. But it’s been a struggle for nearly two decades. Now that Lorna, a respected psychotherapist, has a child of her own, she’s determined to make Marika a part of their lives. As is a darker secret Marika has repressed for nearly seventy years. The reason she left, and her whereabouts afterward, were shrouded in mystery. Her mother Marika, who survived the Nazi occupation of Holland, abandoned the family when Lorna and her brother Wade were just seven and twelve years old. The Blue Windowįrom the Orange Prize–winning author of A Crime in the Neighborhood comes a riveting novel about a therapist whose attempts to unlock the most difficult cases of her life-those of her son, and of her mother-reveal that the bigger the secret you’re concealing, the more it conceals you.
