From the New York Times best-selling author of The Dovekeepers, Second Nature tells the story of a suburban woman, Robin Moore, who discovers her own free spirit through a stranger she brings home to her perfectly ordered neighborhood. As Robin impulsively draws this beautiful, uncivilized man into her world-meanwhile coping with divorce and a troubled teenage son-she begins to question her wisdom and doubt her own heart, and ultimately she changes her ideas about love and humanity.

Second Nature
"Don't let them take me someplace." When he spoke after so many years, the words actually hurt, each one a crooked bone, a fishhook, a burning star. Already, he was starting to disappear.

This is my first story by Alice Hoffman. I know she has a devoted following; the readers that love her style of writing seem to appreciate all of her stories. I had a problem with this piece of fiction; I am not sure what I should tell you. It is unique; you will need to set aside your skepticism and just go with the flow as others did.
There was some family drama. An ex-husband, a hormonal teenager, a crotchety great-grandfather and a depressive older brother.
There was romance.
There were little messages for those that paid close attention and some mild suspense bordering on.....
At times, the writing was exquisitely descriptive: fluid and transcendent. And at other moments it felt disjointed and cracked. Time seemed to move forward and then a memory flooded the page and took you somewhere else.
Like so many other people, I just kept on reading. Because I needed to know how the story would end.
