I mean what!? Don't make someone pregnant and then ignore all the consequences: since baby Charlie spends most of his time with Grace, we see pretty much no change in Isabel's life at all. and then we just skip about a year ahead, the baby is born, they're happily dating and Cat is fucking pissed. … ( more)Ī bit disappointed in this book, because I was kinda looking forward to seeing Isabel dealing with being pregnant, seeing how her relationship with Jamie develops and seeing Cat react to it. and soon finds herself diverging from her philosophical musings about fatherhood onto a path that leads her into the mysteries of the art world and the soul of an artist. Are these paintings forgeries? This proves to be sufficient fodder for Isabel's inquisitiveness. And when she attends an art auction, she finds an irresistable puzzle: two paintings attributed to a now-deceased artist appear on the market at the same time, and both of them exhibit some unusual characteristics. None of these things, however, in any way diminshes Isabel's curiosity. In the midst of all this, she receives a disturbing letter announcing that she has been ousted as editor of the Review of Applied Ethics by the ambitious Professor Dove. Charlies, her newborn son, presents her with a myriad wonders of a new life, and doting father Jamie presents her with an intriguing proposal: marriage. In addition to being the nosiest and most sypathetic philosopher you are likely to meet, Isabel is now a mother.
