In 'Good Faith', Jane Smiley transports us to 1982, where Joe Stratford, a young, recently divorced real estate agent, is experiencing a sweet moment in both his professional and personal life. His job satisfaction is focused on facilitating the purchase and sale of homes, while his love life takes a new turn when he begins a relationship with Felicity, a young, eccentric, married woman who is the daughter of Joe's partner and mentor, Gordon. Unexpectedly, Joe befriends Marcus Burns, a former tax inspector who has given up everything to start businesses and get rich. According to Marcus, times have changed and making money is easy, you just need courage and audacity. Attracted by these perspectives, Joe and Gordon join Marcus in a luxury real estate company, without realizing the web of intrigue that is being woven around them. Smiley masterfully portrays an era of opportunity and economic take-off for many Americans, through close and endearing characters.
Jane Smiley is an American novelist. She won the Pulitzer Prize for Fiction in 1992 for her novel A Thousand Acres (1991).
