For fans of Elizabeth Strout & Anne Tyler comes a brilliantly provocative novel from the Richard & Judy Book Club & Number One bestselling author Anna Quindlen. Anna Quindlen follows her highly-praised novel Miller`s Valley
- `reads like a companion to Elizabeth Strout`s Olive Kitteridge`, Elisabeth Egan
- with a captivating novel about money, class & self-discovery set in the heart of New York where the tensions in a tight-knit neighbourhood-and a seemingly happy marriage-are exposed by an unexpected act of violence. There are days when Nora Nolan thinks that she & her husb&, Charlie, lead a charmed life-except when there`s a crisis at work, a leak in the roof at home or a problem with their twins at college. & why not? New York City was once Nora`s dream destination & her clannish dead-end block has become a safe harbour, a tranquil village amid the urban craziness. The owners watch one another`s children grow up. They use the same handyman. They trade gossip & gripes, & they manoeuvre for the ultimate status symbol: a spot in the block`s small parking lot. Then one morning, Nora returns from her run to discover that a terrible incident has shaken the neighbourhood, & the enviable dead-end block turns into a potent symbol of a divided city. The fault lines begin to open: in their street, at Nora`s place of work in a jewellery museum &, most especially, in her marriage. With an unerring & acute eye that captures beautifully the snap & crackle of modern life, Anna Quindlen explores what it means to be a mother, a wife & a woman at a moment of reckoning. ` Qualities & shades of love are this writer`s strong suit, & she has the unusual talent for writing about them with so much truth & heart that one is carried away on a tidal wave of involvement & concern` Elizabeth Jane Howard ` Mesmerizing. Quindlen makes her characters so richly alive, so believable, that it`s impossible not to feel every doubt & dream they harbour... Overwhelmingly moving` New York Times
