A multigenerational novel in which the four adult daughters of a Chicago couple - still madly in love after forty years - recklessly ignite old rivalries until a long-buried secret threatens to shatter the lives they've built. Spanning nearly half a century, Lombardo's debut explores the triumphs and burdens of love, the fraught tethers of parenthood and sisterhood, and the baffling mixture of affection, abhorrence, resistance, and submission we feel for those closest to us. An ode to a messy, loving family in all its glory.
