The Causative Factor

Book Hero Magic formatted this description to make it easier to read. While it's new and still learning, it may not be perfect - your feedback is welcome! Description

When Rachel and Rubiat meet in art school, they are surprised by a sudden passion. But it is tested right away when Rubiat gives in to a reckless, self-destructive impulse that sets him adrift. Rachel has no choice but to resume her studies, even though she doesn't know what happened to him or if he survived.

After graduation, she moves to Queens, New York, where she begins a career as a painter while supporting herself by teaching ESL classes to immigrants. When she gets together with another man and things become serious, she realises she can't go forward until she solves the mystery of Rubiat's disappearance.

Told in shifting points of view, The Causative Factor explores the power of art and love in a story that asserts the complexities of human nature.
