Summary
Summary
Betrayal comes in many forms ...At the height of the Cold War, words are weapons and secrecy reigns. These are challenging times to be a writer and a wife, as Nell Benjamin knows only too well. One bright November day in 1963, the dazzling young president arrives in Texas and Nell receives a phonecall that overturns the world as she knows it. In the shocking aftermath, whilst America mourns, Nell must come to terms with both a tragedy and a betrayal that shatters every illusion of the man she thought she knew better than anyone else. Resonant, illuminating and utterly absorbing, The Unwitting is about the lies we tell, the secrets we keep and the power of both truth and love.Editorial Reviews
Editorial Reviews
“Through the lens of a passionate, complex marriage, Ellen Feldman brings the Cold War back to life. The Unwitting is a wise and irresistible portrait of fascinating people in a tumultuous time.” —Roger Straus III, former managing director, Farrar, Straus and Giroux
“A story of love and intrigue during the Cold War, The Unwitting
plumbs not only the secrets of spies, but those of the human heart.
Moving, witty, and thoroughly intelligent, it is an absorbing and deeply
satisfying read.” —Kevin Baker, author of The Big Crowd
“Unforgettable…The Unwitting compelled me from the first
page and through every unexpected twist and turn. This look into the
dark places in human nature cries out to be read, reread, and
discussed.” —Lynn Cullen, author of the national bestseller Mrs. Poe
