Like many of Howard Norman’s celebrated novels, this intense and
intriguingly unconventional love story begins with a crime. David
Kozol has assaulted his father-in-law on a London street. What
could possibly enrage David enough that he would strike the father
of his new bride? Why would William, the gentle caretaker of an
estate in Nova Scotia — along with its flock of swans — be so
angry at the man who has just married his beloved daughter Maggie?
And what would lead Maggie to believe that David has been
unfaithful to her? At its core, Devotion is an elegantly
constructed, unsparing examination of love in its various forms —
romantic, filial — and of course, love for the vast open spaces of
the natural world.
