About the book
Daphne Fuller, a fifty-three-year-old English teacher at a private girls’ school on Manhattan’s Upper East Side, is visiting the Metropolitan Museum of Art with her husband when a chance encounter changes everything: an older man following them through the galleries turns out to be Eddie Triplett, her former stepfather, whom she has not seen since she was nine years old.
Moving between past and present, the novel returns to a snowbound night decades earlier when a car accident left young Daphne walking alone through the snow to find help — trusting Eddie’s words that “everyone’s nice.” Tender and quietly profound, Whistler is a story about memory, bravery, the small moments that define a life, and how being truly known by another person — even briefly — can change everything.
