Publisher's noteAfter twenty years of marriage, Jean and Mark Hubbard enjoy a vacation together on a remote tropical island, but the discovery of a steamy love letter addressed to Mark pushes their marriage to the edge. Reprint. AnnotationIsabel Fonseca is best known for her marvelous anthropological exploration of gypsy culture (BURY ME STANDING), and in her debut novel she employs the same cultural acuity to explore themes of identity and fidelity in a technological world. While on vacation on a remote island, journalist Jean Hubbard discovers a steamy and incriminating letter addressed to her husband. With her sense of self completely destabilized, Jean begins to assume her husband's identity online, engaging in a perilous communication with the romantic interloper into her life. Fonseca skillfully captures the bizarre new rules of love and persona in a world where anyone can be anyone, and where, while alone on an island, a person can become tangled in a web of lies and confusion. A jarring, haunting work, ATTACHMENT is an unsettling testament to the wired world of the 2000s, in much the same way that Fonseca's husband Martin Amis's MONEY was a symbol of the hedonistic 1980s.
