In this bold novel that shatters the barriers between fiction and reality, the dark object of narrator Chris's desire is Dick, a well-known theorist who refuses to answer her letters. Chris tenaciously continues to pursue him nonetheless, eventually traveling across the country. The passion-fueled journey pushes the protagonist to a state of madness that moves her away from a life in the shadow of her successful husband and brings her to question the very foundation of her femininity. Chris's compulsive love letters act as essays, and a moment arrives when the letters are in and of themselves art, no longer having anything to do with Dick. The creative force is the guiding principle behind this manifesto-novel that presents a new way to understand feminism, love, and our relationship with the world.
