A lyrical love story but not a conventional one.
A novel about family for all it's good and ill. The forks in the road life can force us to take wheather we want it or not.
This book centres around a complex of USA holiday homes made of 'paper' so in a sense this makes good holiday reading but a light hearted beach this is not. Only pack it if you fancy a bit of depth.
