Description
An absolute New York Times bestseller by Emma Straub—the well-known writer and owner of a bookstore. When Astrid Strick witnessed an accident involving a school bus in the city center, memories flooded in of the times when her children were very small. Suddenly she realized she hadn’t been the parent she wanted to be. And what consequences did that have? If your family drives you crazy, don’t think you’re alone in the world. Astrid Strick has three children and three grandchildren, but this is the first time she’s considered that she may not have been parenting and loving them enough. The children have their own point of view—but which feeling dominates inside them: forgiveness or resentment? At what point did everything go wrong, and isn’t it too late to fix something?
A novel on a serious and timeless theme of parents and children that sometimes will make you laugh out loud.
