Do we love books? Yes, of course, obviously! We’re obsessed with them. But that doesn’t mean we’re not just as obsessed with so many of the great movies and television shows being released today...

Synopses & Reviews

Synopsis

The new novel from Cherise Wolas, acclaimed author of The Resurrection of Joan Ashby

Harry Tabor is about to be named Man of the Decade, a distinction that feels like the culmination of a life well lived. His family comes together in Palm Springs for a weekend of celebration: his wife, Roma, a distinguished child psychologist; his daughters, Phoebe, a high-powered attorney, and Camille, a brilliant social anthropologist; and his son, Simon, also a lawyer, who brings his glamorous wife and two precocious daughters.

Almost immediately, cracks begin to appear in this smooth facade: Simon hasn't been sleeping through the night, Camille can't decide what she wants to do with her life, Phoebe is a little too cagey about her new boyfriend. Roma knows her children are hiding things from her. And it turns out her husband is as well.

Roma Tabor believes life is more interesting when it's filled with mystery...but what if all that they have created is built on a lie?

Synopsis

"Wolas writes with gorgeous intensity about the strata of loving relationships that entwine families in all their messy contradictions that often stubbornly resist transparency, the truth, and resolution. Savor this." --Library Journal, starred review

The Family Tabor, the new novel from Cherise Wolas, acclaimed author of The Resurrection of Joan Ashby

Harry Tabor is about to be named Man of the Decade, a distinction that feels like the culmination of a life well lived. Gathering together in Palm Springs for the celebration are his wife, Roma, a distinguished child psychologist, and their children: Phoebe, a high-powered attorney; Camille, a brilliant social anthropologist; and Simon, a big-firm lawyer, who brings his glamorous wife and two young daughters.

But immediately, cracks begin to appear in this smooth facade: Simon hasn't been sleeping through the night, Camille can't decide what to do with her life, and Phoebe is a little too cagey about her new boyfriend. Roma knows her children are hiding things. What she doesn't know, what none of them know, is that Harry is suddenly haunted by the long-buried secret that drove him, decades ago, to relocate his young family to the California desert. As the ceremony nears, the family members are forced to confront the falsehoods upon which their lives are built.

Set over the course of a single weekend, and deftly alternating between the five Tabors, this provocative, gorgeously rendered novel, reckons with the nature of the stories we tell ourselves and our family and the price we pay for second chances.
