At thirty, Lenore's life fractures into a Before and an After. A diagnosis arrives without warning-indifferent to power, wealth, or influence-and quietly reshapes her world into one of caregivers, machines, and fragile intervals of awareness.

Produktbeschreibung
At thirty, Lenore's life fractures into a Before and an After. A diagnosis arrives without warning-indifferent to power, wealth, or influence-and quietly reshapes her world into one of caregivers, machines, and fragile intervals of awareness. As her body weakens, memory becomes a refuge: her intellectual awakening at Oxford, a vocation shaped by philanthropy, friendships that challenged her certainties, and her relationship with Harrison-an older man whose devotion evolves from desire into a profound meditation on care, choice, and the limits of human will. What begins as a love story deepens into an intimate exploration of consciousness, youth and privilege, ambition and vulnerability. The novel moves between the present-where time narrows and the body resists-and the years that shaped Lenore's inner life, revealing how affection, responsibility, and longing quietly negotiate their place within human relationships. Through restrained prose and a deeply human gaze, The Intriguing Stillness of the Tides examines the invisible thresholds where identity, illness, and hope converge. It is a novel about presence and memory, about the inner worlds that persist even as the body falls silent. Philosophical without abstraction and emotional without sentimentality, the novel invites readers to contemplate what remains-of love, of dignity, of the self-when time begins to vanish.
