author of THE
WEDNESDAY SISTERS
(forthcoming from Ballantine, Summer 2008)
and
LANGUAGE OF LIGHT
a novel set in the Maryland Horse Country
"Maryland horse country--picturesque, genteel,
moneyed--seems an odd setting for a novel concerned with issues like
the
Vietnam War, the impact of art on society, and a woman's struggle to balance
career and motherhood. But
Meg Waite Clayton, in her debut novel
The
Language of Light,
foregrounds these themes even as her characters
participate
in the requisite foxhunts and charity balls, and even as they
debate what to wear to afternoon tea."
