Longlisted for the Women’s Prize for Fiction When Marilyn Connolly and David Sorenson fall in love in the 1970 s, they are blithely ignorant of all that awaits them. By 2016, their four drastically different children remain in a state of unrest. Wendy, widowed young, soothes herself with alcohol and younger guys; Violet, a litigator turned stay-at-home-mom, battles anxiety and self-doubt; Liza, a neurotic and recently tenured teacher, discovers herself pregnant with a child she’s not exactly sure she desires by a male she’s not sure she likes; and Grace, the dawdling youngest daughter, begins living a lie that nobody in her family even suspects. With the arrival of Jonah Bendt– a child put for adoption by among the children fifteen years in the past– the Sorensons will be forced to reckon with the rich and differed tapestry of their past: years marred by adolescent angst, adultery, and resentment, but also the transcendent moments of delight that make whatever else beneficial.
