En 'A Start in Life', Ruth Weiss ha escapado de la vida refugiándose en los libros desde su infancia, alejándose de las atenciones sofocantes de sus padres y buscando el calor de amantes y amigos. Ahora, a los 40 años, la Dra. Weiss, una erudita dedicada al estudio de Balzac, se da cuenta de que su vida ha sido arruinada por la literatura y que debe comenzar de nuevo. Esta conmovedora novela explora temas de soledad, amor y la búsqueda de significado en la vida moderna.
