During the summer of 1997, the year of the comet, four people reach a turning point : Alice Valentine, who lies gravely ill in her West Country home ; her younger son, still searching for a sense of direction ; his brother, fighting to keep his acting career and marriage afloat ; and Laszlo Lazar, who leads a charmed life of exile in Paris yet is plagued by his memories of the 1956 Hungarian uprising.
