　　Margaret and Patrick have been married just a few months when

they set off on what they hope will be a great adventure-a year

living in Kenya. Margaret quickly realizes there is a great deal

she doesn't know about the complex mores of her new home, and about

her own husband.

A British couple invites the newlyweds to join on a climbing

expedition to Mount Kenya, and they eagerly agree. But during their

harrowing ascent, a horrific accident occurs. In the aftermath of

the tragedy, Margaret struggles to understand what happened on the

mountain and how these events have transformed her and her

marriage, perhaps forever.

A Change in Altitude illuminates the inner landscape of a couple,

the irrevocable impact of tragedy, and the elusive nature of

f***iveness. With stunning language and striking emotional

intensity, Anita Shreve transports us to the exotic panoramas of

Africa and into the core of our most intimate relati***hips.

　　PRAISE FOR A CHANGE IN ALTITUDE:

　　"Visual and sharply focused....Shreve knows how to keep a reader

engaged." (Washington Post Valerie Sayers )

　　"No one is better at gently, but thoroughly probing the interior

life of her characters than Anita Shreve....A Change in Altitude

reflects many of Shreve's familiar themes: loss and grief, the

relati***hip between a man and woman, and how one moment can change

a life forever. Shreve weaves a strong mix of exotic Africa and

interesting characters, producing a potent story that will keep

readers thinking about them long after the last page of the novel."

(Newsday Mary Foster )

　　"Shreve takes readers from Nairobi's lush suburbs to its fetid

slums, from the drawing-room world of the white gentry to that of

its black servants....A Change in Altitude rises a few thousand

feet above typical women's fiction." (USA Today Olivia Barker

)

　　"Prepare to cancel all your appointments as you race through this

dramatic saga....Enthralling. The mountains Margaret must

climb-li***lly, and figuratively-are difficult ones. Readers will

be eager to learn if she successfully scales the peak." (Bookpage

Eliza Borné )

　　"A winner. Once again, Shreve's fans can approach her book with

the confident anticipation that she will provide yet another

satisfying experience. A Change in Altitude is an unusual kind of

page-turner, part whodunit, part adventure story....Readers will

vicariously enjoy all facets of this adventure in Africa from the

safety of their own armchair." (Free-Lance Star Diane Makovsky

)
