Description
Ann Beattie's novella Walks with Men is a poignant and intense portrayal of a young woman's journey into adulthood. In 1980 New York City, Jane strikes a deal with Neil, an older writer who becomes her lover and mentor.
Their relationship is built on a series of unconventional rules and desires, from the mundane to the provocative. As Jane navigates this new world, she begins to uncover the complexities and deceptions that underlie Neil's certainties.
