Acerca del autor

Alan Lightman was born in Memphis, Tennessee, and educated at Princeton and the California Institute of Technology.

De la solapa interior

w York Times has called Alan Lightman highly original and imaginative. Each of his novels is a new exploration of that imagination, utterly unlike the others. Einstein s Dreams, an international best-seller, was a whimsical and provocative tone poem about time. The Diagnosis, hailed by the Washington Post as a major accomplishment and a finalist for the National Book Award, was a disturbing examination of our obsession with speed, information, and money, and the resulting poverty of our spiritual lives. Lightman s new novel, Reunion, is a delicate and haunting story of how we shape our identity through memory.

Charles is a middle-aged professor at a minor liberal-arts college, a once promising poet, admiring of passion but without passion himself. Without knowing why, he decides to attend his thirtieth college reunion. And there, he magically witnesses a replay of his senior year.
