Lauren Acompora will discuss her new title, "The Hundred Years," a strange. sexy, and sinister novel of art and attraction. In "The Hundred Waters," Acampora gives us an an incisive, page-turning story of ambition, despair, desire, and the price of fulfillment of and freedom at all costs.
Formerly a model and photographer trying to make it in New York, Louisa Rader is back in her affluent hometown of Nearwater, Connecticut, where she's married to a successful older architect, raising a preteen daughter, and trying to vitalize the provincial local art center. As the years pass, she's grown restless in her safe and comfortable routine, haunted by the flash of the life she used to live. When intense and intriguing young artist-environmentalist Gabriel arrives in town with his aristo-cratic family, his impact on the Raders has hothouse effects. As Gabriel pushes to realize his artistic vision for the world, he pulls both Louisa and her daughter Sylvie under his spell, with consequences that disrupt the Raders' world forever.
