From the back cover

Henry's girlfriend Aria flinches from every kindness he offers, calling his birthday gifts the work of a psychopath and accusing him of paying for dates only to get her into a hotel room. Friends insist her avoidant attachment and a childhood scarred by abusive parents explain her coldness, and urge him to keep teaching her how to love. They marry, and he funds the violin lessons she always wanted, year after year.

Then Aria takes up with the very violin teacher Henry hired, and a call from an abortion clinic reaches him with the bill charged to his own credit card. When he phones her, she snaps that he wanted the marriage and should simply turn a blind eye. His mother is dying and asks for Aria; Aria's answer is a shriek that the dying woman is not her mother and that she owes her no vigil.

Beside his mother's bed, Henry stares at the ceiling and wonders how five years came to this.

When I gave her presents on her birthday, she called me a psychopath.

Whenever I stepped up to pay the bill after our dates, she would lash out with venom:

I thought about breaking up with her more than once, but all our friends urged me to hang in there.
