And This Too Shall Pass follows the intertwined lives of a rising sports agent, a closeted football star, and the people orbiting their secrets, successes and self-destruction. E. Lynn Harris builds it around love, ego and the pressure to live two different lives at once — the public version and the one that hurts to admit even to yourself. Affairs overlap, loyalties break, and everyone is pushed toward choices that force honesty, whether they’re ready or not. It’s sleek, dramatic, romantic and messy in the best Harris way, all about identity, betrayal and the hope of finally stepping into the truth.
