Light Years by James Salter Book Summary

This exquisite, resonant novel by PEN/Faulkner winner James Salter is a brilliant portrait of a marriage by a contemporary American master. It is the story of Nedra and Viri, whose favored life is centered around dinners, ingenious games with their children, enviable friends, and near-perfect days passed skating on a frozen river or sunning on the beach. But even as he lingers over the surface of their marriage, Salter lets us see the fine cracks that are spreading through it, flaws that will eventually mar the lovely picture beyond repair. Seductive, witty, and elegantly nuanced, Light Years is a classic novel of an entire generation that discovered the limits of its own happiness—and then felt compelled to destroy it.

Light Years. The plot is of minor concern to the reader in this case. Rather, it is the uniqueness of the writing: "poetic prose". So much of the description is like that in a great poem, with metaphorical implications for the reader that at times are utterly stunning! If the reader were asked "what's the story about?" - a summary of the plot would almost be irrelevant. Of greater significance might be the question "what does the reader get from reading this story?" Many answers to that, but one might be: "this story often describes beautifully feelings in myself that I have not been able to articulate before, but now feel more meaningfully!"

Light years. I tried. But couldn’t get through more than 6 chapters. Don’t know what direction the author was going in and what the story was all about. It does not capture the reader
