Poignant, thought-provoking, and amusing Esther Christian�s new novel, Chance Meeting, is a lively debut.
From its gripping start to its breathless finale, Esther Christian�s novel Chance Meeting sweeps readers along on a whirlwind experience of emotional highs and lows as they follow a mid-career woman�s quest for truth and serenity in a world gone awry. Yet as equally engaging is the question Christian raises in a paradoxical take on her novel�s title as to whether chance meetings occur or are they circumstances leading us onto the path of greater self-discovery.
This thought-provoking theme gently unfolds through the successive points of view of its central characters. Set in Washington, DC and its upscale suburbs, with flashes to a Caribbean backdrop, the novel sheds light on the seldom explored lives of contemporary, African-American professionals caught in the sometimes dizzying swirl of romance, career disenchantment, class, female independence, and gender conflict.
With juicy drama and steamy love scenes, readers are propelled through a smorgasbord of sentiments of passion, betrayal, hatred and revenge, as in quick succession the lead character confronts an unexpected series of events that threatens to push her to the edge. Instead, unexpected circumstances force her down the road to salvation.
Esther Christian has been writing most of her life. She has written numerous short stories and award winning essays. Chance Meeting is her first novel.
