#1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • NAMED ONE OF THE BEST
BOOKS OF THE YEAR BY The Washington Post and The New York Times
Book Review. A simple hospital visit becomes a portal to the
tender relationship between mother and daughter in this
extraordinary novel by the Pulitzer Prize–winning author of
Olive Kitteridge and The Burgess Boys. Lucy Barton is recovering
slowly from what should have been a simple operation. Her
mother, to whom she hasn’t spoken for many years, comes to see
her. Gentle gossip about people from Lucy’s childhood in Amgash,
Illinois, seems to reconnect them. Knitting this powerful
narrative together is the brilliant storytelling voice of Lucy
herself: keenly observant, deeply human, and truly
unforgettable.
Characters: 29. Amazon rating: 3 1/2 stars. Genre: Fiction.
