Borders exist--lines of demarcation to
be found on no map - that, once crossed,
place people in regions where compro-
mise is no longer possible. Elizabeth
Spencer s new novel is set on the Missis-
sippi Gulf Coast, across such a bound-
ary. It is the story of ctiltivated people
not given to rash or obsessive behavior-
unless aroused. It takes place in the
aftermath of Hurricane Camille, and
tells of an abiding rivalry between two
men, and of their women--one whose
hold reaches beyond her death, and
one whose charms break that hold.
THE SALT LINE is all extraordinary
novel by one of America s finest writers
-her first new novel in ten years. The
New York Times calls Elizabeth Spen-
cer "a kind of smiling sibyl, unafraid of
her news." The Atlantic says, "Her art
reaches beyond the familiar toward new
experience and the new knowledge it
brings." And now, with THE SALT LINE,
her work will capture the popular imag-
ination as it does the critics acclaim.
