Description
Karen and Barney Stark's marriage has been a source of tension for years. Childless and uncomfortable in their relationship, they've struggled to find common ground. When an incident at Barney's workplace exposes them both to radioactive dust, their lives become even more complicated. As Karen discovers she is pregnant, the couple's closest friends turn against them, fearing the perceived danger of having a child with someone who may be affected by the radiation. The dream of becoming parents turns into a nightmare as they face isolation and suspicion from those around them. The Touch is a poignant and heart-wrenching novel that explores the complexities of human relationships and the consequences of circumstance.
