Description

In 1984, Jolene Iolas, a student in upstate New York, encounters Martin Sloane's work while visiting a Toronto gallery. She strikes up a correspondence with the older artist, and eventually they become lovers. And then, without warning, without a word, he vanishes.

There is no hint of his fate, no chain of cause and effect to be followed.

Over the following months, Jolene sheds her life, losing everything, including her oldest friend, Molly, to her grief.

Ten years pass, and Jolene begins to live with Martin's disappearance.

But then the opportunity to confront her ghost arises.

Word comes from, of all people, Molly, that someone named Sloane has been exhibiting in Irish galleries.

Jolene travels to Dublin, where she is reluctantly reunited with her old friend.

Together, the two women become lost in a jumble of pasts as they try to piece together what happened to Martin Sloane.

Seamlessly crafted and beautifully written, Martin Sloane evokes the mysteries of love and art, the weight of history, and what it means to bear memory for the missing and the dead.
