Description

At once a sensuous and amazing secret and a haunting work of psychological perception and emotional level, The Whole World represents the start of an excellent literary career for Emily Winslow, an excellent, limitlessly talented author. Set within the highly evoked paths and environments of Cambridge, England, The Whole World unearths the eager secrets stored by its several complicated characters—students, teachers, investigators, partners, mothers—secrets that result in intense consequences.Two Americans studying at Cambridge University, Polly and Liv, both visitors with their new house, both heirs of previous errors, become fast friends. They look for a common curiosity about Nick, a good-looking, wonderful, apparently guileless graduate student. For a period, the three participate in safe flirtation, developing nearer while performing research for teacher Gretchen John, the blind daughter of the famous author. But an infidelity, followed closely by Nick’s mysterious disappearance, provides long-buried backgrounds for the investigation raises questions, and the papers record all of the many salacious details—from the offense that scarring Polly’s past towards the truths hidden in pictures Gretchen can't observe.
