MEET THE SORENSON FAMILY


MARILYN has somehow fallen into motherhood and spent four
decades married to
DAVID, who's pretty certain he loves her more than anyone has
ever loved another person.
WENDY, their eldest, a cause for concern, soothes herself with
drink after being widowed young,
while VIOLET, lawyer-turned-stay-at-home-mother, is disturbed by
the reappearance of a son placed for adoption fifteen years earlier.
LIZA, a professor, is pregnant with a baby she's not sure she wants
by a man she's not sure she loves
and GRACE, their dawdling youngest daughter, lives a lie that no
one in her family suspects.

'A gripping and poignant ode to a messy, loving family in all its
glory' Madeline Miller
'A moving, immersive, often very funny study of family and
sisterhood' Sunday Times

'Like Meg Wolitzer. A forensic dissection of family past and


present, I loved it. If you like reading about relationships, this one is
for you.' Pandora Sykes
