House of Sand and Fog

House of Sand and Fog, to me looks like a very mysterious book. It is a foggy cover, and a far middle of no where farm house. It is an Oprah's Book Club book, so that must mean it's good! While flipping threw the pages, and reading the back cover, I think this book is going to be about a married man who falls in love with his mistress, and then there is a tragedy of some sort. The cover didn't inform me what it is going to be about, but the way that they make it seem, it is a huge tragedy.
