"Lucy Barton is recovering slowly from what should have been a simple operation. Her mother, to whom she hasn't spoken for many years, comes to see her. Gentle gossip about people from Lucy's childhood in Amgash, Illinois, seems to reconnect them, but just below the surface lie the tension and longing that have informed every aspect of Lucy's life: her escape from her troubled family, her desire to become a writer, her marriage, her love for her two daughters"-- provided by publisher.

Exhausting... submitted by bookher on June 19, 2018, 9:12am I can appreciate the author attempting to tell the story of a difficult mother/daughter relationship but I was exhausted after I finished this book. I think it examines how unnatural and stressful family relationships can be but I think I already knew this.
