Summary: Sophie Zawistowska, the tragic Polish Catholic beauty who, having survived Auschwitz, has settled in America after World War II. The time is 1947. Stingo, a 22 year-old aspiring writer from rural Virginia, is drawn to Sophie and Nathan–a madly romantic couple whose instability and flamboyance utterly capture this young man’s imagination. The deeper Stingo sinks into these people’s lives, the more he learns that each harbors terrible and terrifying secrets
