Annie is not the first love of Graham’s life but she is, he thinks, his last and greatest. Very recently, he has faltered; but he means to put it right.
Here they are in marriage, in late middle age, in comfort. Mismatched, and yet so well matched: the bookseller with his appetite, his conviviality, his bigness; the photographer with her delicacy, her astuteness, her reserve. The children are offstage, grown up and scattered on either coast; Graham’s first wife, Frieda, is peaceably in their lives, but not between them.
Then the unthinkable happens. Now Annie stumbles in the dark: did she know all there was to know about the man who loved her? If no marriage is without its small indiscretions, how great does a betrayal have to be to be to break it?
A novel about marriage, family, secrets and love, Monogamy confirms Sue Miller’s place among the greatest writers at work in America today.©2020 HarperCollins Publishers

Reseñas de la crítica
It was such a pleasure to read the work of someone so talented at the very peak of their powers - it is elegant, assured, captivating and devastating, and it’s one of the most emotionally truthful novels I have ever read. Annie filled my head and my heart - this book will stay with me forever (Daisy Buchanan)
This US writer isn't as well known here as she should be — if you like Anne Tyler or Elizabeth Strout, check out this wise, witty page-turner
Sue Miller’s engrossing novel is infused with generosity and the complicated kind of love readers will recognize from real life
An underrated master of US fiction ... Miller asks big questions about marriage and whether it’s worth the sacrifices involved. And these fascinating insights are wrapped up in a page-turning plot, too
Terrific ... I loved this insightful, wise and witty novel
A rich, complex book ... Her great gift is how clearly she sees these all-important people of hers, even in the smallest of moments …Without exception Miller’s minor characters spring to life with Dickensian vividness … An old-fashioned, slow burn of a novel that allows readers to dream deeply. Miller knows exactly who she is and what she wants to take pictures of. As a result those pictures are full of depth and contrast and lush detail. They need to be studied, not glanced at. They belong in an art gallery, not on Instagram
The shifting perspectives in the narrative … demonstrate how dependent truth is on what is shown to us. Sue Miller’s skillfulness at doing so makes a familiar plot into an original story that reflects the real-life complexity of long relationships. Monogamy demonstrates that Miller remains one of the finest cartographers of the territory of marriage
Monogamy is a beautifully nuanced portrait of a marriage, and a devastatingly moving insight into love, desire, grief, loss and creativity. Miller's writing is exquisitely understated, with sentences so perfectly formed they'll take your breath away (Hannah Beckerman)
A poignant page-turner, delving deep into our most intimate relationships
Miller explores the aftermath of bereavement, in a patient, grown-up style that nonetheless refuses to deny us the thrill of late twists and revelations. Almost every line glows with even handed wisdom - a superb novel, beautifully put together
Oh my goodness with what exquisite truth Sue Miller writes. The intimacies and doubts and emotion-swerving relationship that IS marriage, that emotional snakes and ladders, tamed during the day but unleashed in the middle of the night ,were skewered with such perfect insight. I was completely wrapped up in the beautifully, and often so tenderly observed rollercoaster of grief. An invaluably moving book (Juliet Nicolson)
A sensual and perceptive novel … With humour and humanity, Miller resists the simple scorned-wife story and instead crafts a revelatory tale of the complexities - and the absurdities - of love, infidelity, and grief
A gripping novel
