ELLIE & NEIL FELL IN LOVE over email, discussing Ayn Rand's novel, Atlas Shrugged. Neither remembered the other's face clearly. Both were married already. And she had a five-year-old son. But in the span of a few letters each discovered his soul's mirror-image. So how could they live apart?

Woven with poetry and philosophy this is a story about the nature of love, its enchantment or curse, and the heartbreaking question: Can a mother secure her child's happiness by sacrificing hers?
