OH WILLIAM! : A Novel / ELIZABETH STROUT London : Penguin Books, 2022 240 pages ; 20 cm text rdacontent unmediated rdamedia volume rdacarrier Originally published: UK: Viking, 2021 Lucy Barton is a writer, but her ex-husband, William, remains a hard man to read. William, she confesses, has always been a mystery to me. Another mystery is why the two have remained connected after all these years. They just are. So Lucy is both surprised and not surprised when William asks her to join him on a trip to investigate a recently uncovered family secret--one of those secrets that rearrange everything we think we know about the people closest to us. What happens next is nothing less than another example of what Hilary Mantel has called Elizabeth Strout's "perfect attunement to the human condition." There are fears and insecurities, simple joys and acts of tenderness, and revelations about affairs and other spouses, parents and their children. On every page of this exquisite novel we learn more about the quiet forces that hold us together--even after we've grown apart Authors Fiction Family secrets Fiction Families Fiction Domestic fiction ddc B 192951 192951 0 0 PPAK G 2023-09-20 0 813.54 STR A01790000 2023-09-20 15:33:31 B 0 0 SP G 2023-09-20 0 813.54 STR A01790001 2023-09-20 15:33:31 B 0 0 LW G 2023-09-20 3 1 813.54 STR A01790002 2026-02-03 17:34:36 2026-01-26 B 0 0 KM G 2023-09-20 2 1 813.54 STR A01790003 2026-02-21 12:35:57 2026-01-10 B
