The Art of Mending - Elizabeth Berg

Descriere The Art of Mending - Elizabeth Berg

From the author of We Are All Welcome Here comes her most ambitious work to date--a moving novel where unearthed truths force one seemingly ordinary family to reexamine their disparate lives and to ask themselves: Is it too late to mend the hurts of the past? \nNATIONAL BESTSELLER - Revelations about a seemingly ordinary mother force her adult children to reexamine their lives in this absorbing novel about family secrets (The Dallas Morning News). \n Laura Bartone anticipates her annual family reunion in Minnesota with a mixture of excitement and wariness. Yet this year's gathering will prove to be much more trying than either she or her siblings imagined. As soon as she arrives, Laura realizes that something is not right with her sister. Forever wrapped up in events of long ago, Caroline is the family's restless black sheep. When Caroline confronts Laura and their brother, Steve, with devastating allegations about their mother, the three have a difficult time reconciling their varying experiences in the same house. But a sudden misfortune will lead them all to face the past, their own culpability, and their common need for love and forgiveness. \n \n Readers have come to love Elizabeth Berg for the lucent beauty of [her] prose, the verity of her insights, and the tenderness of her regard for her fellow human (Booklist). In The Art of Mending, she confronts some of the deepest mysteries of life, as she explores how even the largest sins can be forgiven by the smallest gestures, and how grace can come to many through the trials of one.\n
