The Forgotten Waltz: A Novel

2012 Winner of the Andrew Carnegie Award for Excellence in Literature

"This stunning novel by a Booker Prize winner . . . Offers up its brilliance by way of astonishingly effective storytelling."â€•Booklist, starred review
"A new, unapologetic kind of adultery novel. Narrated by the proverbial other womanâ€•Gina Moynihan, a sharp, sexy, darkly funny thirtysomething IT workerâ€•The Forgotten Waltz charts an extramarital affair from first encounter to arranged, settled, everyday domesticity. . . . This novelâ€™s beauty lies in Enrightâ€™s spare, poetic, off-kilter proseâ€•at once heartbreaking and subversively funny. Itâ€™s built of startling little surprises and one fresh sentence after another. Enright captures the heady eroticism of an extramarital affair and the incendiary egomania that accompanies secret passion: For all their utter ordinariness, Sean and Gina feel like the greatest lovers who've ever lived.â€â€•Elle
