'If you have time for only one book this summer, pick this one' New
York Times 'An ambitious, immersive novel from the author of In Her
Shoes' Red Magazine 'Engrossing' Sunday Mirror
____________________________ From the No. 1 New York Times
bestselling author of That Summer comes another heartfelt and
unputdownable novel of family, secrets, and the ties that bind.
When Veronica Levy bought her dream house on the Outer Cape, she
imagined a place where generations of her family would gather for
years to come. Now, forty years later, with her children barely
speaking to each other, or to her, Veronica has decided,
reluctantly, to put the place on the market. She'll invite the
family to gather one last time (and insist on their good behavior)
at her granddaughter Ruby's wedding. She'll spend one last summer
by the beach, with her daughter Sarah, her son Sam, and whichever
grandchildren can be coaxed into making the trip. Then she'll say
goodbye to the house she's loved for forty years. But three months
is a long time. Time enough for an old love to reappear, for
secrets to come to light, and for three generations of Levy women
to decide what kind of lives they want to live, in the summers they
have left. The Summer Place is a hilarious, delicious, and wickedly
observed story about parents and children, husbands and wives, the
places we call home, and all the ways that love can surprise us.
