Two women meet by accident on a Nantucket beach and are drawn into a friendship. Olivia is a young mother whose eight-year-old severely autistic son has recently died. She comes to the island in a trial separation to try and make sense of the tragedy of her Anthony's short life. Beth, a stay-at-home mother of three, is also recently separated after discovering her husband's long-term infidelity.

COMMUNITY REVIEWS

best book i've read in a long time submitted by Laura Hoseney on December 9, 2014, 2:14pm Love Anthony, by Lisa Genova is one of the best books I have read this year. I started crying in the second to last chapter and it took me three false starts to finish it, through my tears. But I am glad I did. It is so good. I am going to go out and buy this book so I can read it all the time.
