J. Courtney Sullivan: Maine, Kartoniert / Broschiert

Klappentext

This breakout New York Times bestseller from the celebrated author of Commencement and The Engagements , introduces four unforgettable women and the abiding, often irrational love that keeps them coming back, every summer, to Maine and to each other.

For the Kellehers, Maine is a place where children run in packs, showers are taken outdoors, and old Irish songs are sung around a piano. As three generations of Kelleher women arrive at the family's beach house, each brings her own hopes and fears. Maggie is thirty-two and pregnant, waiting for the perfect moment to tell her imperfect boyfriend the news; Ann Marie, a Kelleher by marriage, is channeling her domestic frustration into a dollhouse obsession and an ill-advised crush; Kathleen, the black sheep, never wanted to set foot in the cottage again; and Alice, the matriarch at the center of it all, would trade every floorboard for a chance to undo the events of one night, long ago.
