The long view
Howard, Elizabeth Jane, 1923-20142015
Book
Moving backward in time from 1950 to 1926, 'The Long View' presents an unusually revealing portrait on a marriage. It traces the lives of Antonia and Conrad Fleming through Antonia's eyes as she looks back on her married life and unravels her choices, good and bad, and the motivation behind them. She'd opted to surrender many decisions to her loving, intellectual husband, who'd proved so very adept at designing their lives down to the most intricate detail. But rather than dissolve under Conrad's protective auspices, Antonia's own powerful personality rang clear; it was she who decided for herself the issues of greatest importance.
