No one captures the tiny details of everyday life quite like Catherine Newman. She has a remarkable gift for noticing the small, ordinary moments that make up the fabric of family and turning them into something deeply poignant.
In this return to Rocky’s world, we find her back home in Western Massachusetts with her husband Nick, their daughter Willa, her widowed father, Mort, while her son Jamie begins a new chapter in New York. Life is normal until Rocky becomes preoccupied with a local accident and the quiet fears it awakens about the people she loves. In this book, Newman once again proves she’s a master at exploring family dynamics and authentic human emotion. It’s a slice of life that is so relatable on many levels.
