Every month they gather over good food and wine to discuss their favorite books: six very different women—not quite friends, not quite strangers. Enid is a successful psychiatrist, brilliant yet inexplicably dissatisfied; Donna, torn between two lovers, dreams of family but fears commitment; Rina's destructive fantasies may be her downfall; Pat and Hedy are sisters as dissimilar as they are competitive; and Connie is the envy of all her friends with the perfect career, the perfect family, the perfect life. Brought together by their love of literature, they share a deep understanding of one another…or so they think.Then Connie, the woman seemingly so happy, announces that she is divorcing her husband for reasons she refuses to share.
