For fans of Elizabeth Strout and Barbara Kingsolver: Beautifully observed portrait of marriage, divorce and reconciliation as a couple go on a road trip to uncover a family mystery.'A consummate storyteller' RACHEL JOYCE____________________________Kathleen and Yannick have not spoken for nineteen years, not since what happened with their daughter.Now, there¿s unexpected news from the other side of the country, and the call for a road trip they can only make together.As they rattle over two thousand miles in a pick-up, through forests, over mountains and into service stations, an alluring history reveals itself: of fierce love, ex-wives and troubled times, and of a unique bond that never really went away. As they drive, argue, weep and reminisce, an unexpected future for this once estranged couple, now rediscovering each other, begins to emerge. It is not a question of will they, won¿t they, but should they?Piercingly funny and perfectly crafted, Leipciger invites the reader on a luminous journey into the most bewildering corners of our heart with exquisite insight and compassion.
