Told completely in letters and postcards, Long Distances is a story of love and separation, spanning 2 continents and the lifetime of a marriage. Michael, a young English professor, takes his sabbatical year in London to finish his third volume of poetry. His wife, Kate, a tv producer, stays behind in NY with their 2 children. Michael and Kate battle with the demands of modern marriage--love, lust, faith and betrayal.
