| Publisher Description: A revelatory tale of love gained and lost, from a master of contemporary American fiction Gerard sits, fully clothed, in his empty bathtub and pines for Benna. Neighbors in the same apartment building, they share a wall and Gerard listens for the sound of her toilet flushing. Gerard loves Benna. And then Benna loves Gerard.
