Psychiatrist Stephen Forester and his wife Brea left the frenzy of New York City ten years before in search of a quiet life in a tranquil seaside community in New Hampshire. But when the elusive Eva Hathaway steps into Stephen's office and begins to reveal the story of her own tragic past, his convictions start to crumble. Over the sweltering summer that follows, Stephen becomes more and more haunted by obscure memories of his childhood as he wonders what secret could be so terrible that Eva can only reveal it in her journal.

Perfectly Suspenseful By Cilla The author has achieved the perfect level of suspense that kept me wondering what Eva's secret was all the way to the end. This was a beautifully written book that deals with trauma and redemption in an honest and believable way. Each of Eva's journal entries reveals just enough of her past to keep you wondering just how things will turn out for Eva, Brea and Stephen. A delicious read.

Shadowy Intimates and Selves By Brian Kingzett Taylor Shadowy Intimates and SelvesThe haunting copy of Van Gogh's Undergrowth with Two Figures painting ( almost faceless and inscrutable in a pathless wilderness) reproduced as the cover of Maryann D'Agincourt's Journal of Eva Morelli novel (Portmay Press 2013) is highly suggestive of its mysterious contents. These relate essentially to the private views and problems of three characters, living, say in 2000, in a New Hampshire seaside town near Boston, variously concerned with the memory of now dead parental or other unsteady, enigmatic intimates in their past with in two cases a hint as well of their own confused and shaky relationships in their present. They are firstly those of Eva Morelli, tall, slender, exotic, sensual, experienced, twice-married with two daughters and beginning to wrestle with her secretive past in very gradual and evasive revelations of her bruised experience partly recorded in a journal kept over four months of psychiatric sessions. Secondly and thirdly they are those of Stephen Forester the psychiatrist (who kept a copy of Van Goch's shadowy painting on his office wall) and his actress wife Brea who ten year's previously moved with a young son for quiet from the hassle of New York, restlessly beset by their own puzzling uncertainties..Eva Morelli was born an only child about 1950 to busy but early over-protective and later distant parents who a few years on were working as talented, idealized and melancholic jazz pianist and his manager respectively in what was described as a sinister and depressing night-club in Boston. A sympathetic but secretive paternal Aunt Lora working part-time at Woolworths and later as a bank accountant was partly responsible for her upbringing, as a stand-in at the parental home during their many absences, and after their tragic deaths by murder and suicide, when Eva was 16, in her own home for a time as her mentor before Eva's first marriage. Later Eva found that the Van Goch painting reminded her of her parents and of secretive Aunt Lora also whom long ago she had discovered were not the sort of people she had thought them to be.Stephen Forester was born in 1958, son and only child of a busy, attractive and renowned analyst in Boston Dr Arthur Forester (who was interested in the "divided self" which if understood correctly might ultimately enhance the personality) and his often absent petite, stolid and politically activist mother, a couple wrapped up with their careers, and tending in Stephen's early lonely days to leave him in the hands of an earthy baby-sitter whom they called Mrs C, whom he could hardly recall but came to feel resembled his patient Eva in some strange way. Later in his youth he would become disillusioned about his mother's suspected marital infidelity, harshly judge her for lack of presence in his life and secretly blame her for his over-anxious nature. Much later he would lose his admiration for and confidence in his father, the parents perhaps becoming typified for him by Van Gogh's faceless figures. By middle age Stephen now working on a presentation on the Art and Science of Listening to the Patient (which was akin to listening to a patient's heart) had been married 14 years to actress Brea, had a young son and all three were experiencing some doubts about the family's adjustment in small- town New Hampshire life.Brea Forester, the psychiatrist's actress wife, whose background was only slightly described, was born around 1962 and raised in New York by parents who though long divorced were not "shadowy" but maintained a sympathetic relationship. When she looked at the Van Goch painting she commented to her husband "The figures look shaky. Do you see us in that painting, Stephen ? " His positive reply confirmed her perception. After her parents' divorce Brea had several mainly "feral" affairs in the theatre world before meeting the love-seeking Stephen and during her 10 married years in New Hampshire had come to have a close relatonship with Sam her director and fellow actor about which Stephen had challenged her. Currently she had been interpreting and rehearsing the character and role of Mrs Helena Alving of Ibsen's Ghosts the theme of which was people obsessed with the past while director Sam was playing Pastor Mander who had persuaded Mrs Alving to stand by and reform her hopeless husband.The author's presentation of all this and more of the whole story took the form of an intriguing sequence of 27 brief "chapters" on activities of the key characters interwoven with 16 usually even briefer Journal entries by the patient Eva. This brief and frequent shift in the treatment of the different characters' "stories" and their mysterious connections was skilfully done and certainly holds the reader's interest but it may have resulted for some in an excess of snippety impressionism and a too hurried "All's Well that Ends Well" conclusion about constitutionally divided selves.
