If you can't trust your senses, what's left to believe?George is a celebrated wine writer whose authority rests on taste, nuance, and control. When an act of shocking brutality enters his life, that control disintegrates. His family begins to slip beyond his reach, and reality itself seems to tilt. As his relationship with wine and the truth becomes increasingly unstable, George is confronted with an unsettling paradox: can someone who no longer trusts his own senses still interpret the world for others?�Darkly ironic and psychologically acute, this is a novel about perception, identity, and the fragile boundary between expertise and delusion.
