Simultaneously hilarious and heartbreaking, "The Holiday Season"and
its companion piece, "Love at the End of the Year"are tender
ruminations on the nature of family, the power of love, and a
particularly complicated time of year. In"The Holiday Season,"
Jeff, Ted, and Frank Posey are still trying to figure out how to be
a family three years after the death of the wife and mother who
bound them together. As the year winds to a close and the holidays
threaten to unearth the usual myriad of emotions and memories,
hairline fractures in the Poseys' relationships finally splinter
and crack over what should be, but never are, simple dilemmas:
where to spend the holidays and when it is finally time to break
with old traditions. The second novella, "Love at the End of the
Year," is an intoxicating tale that weighs up love in all its many
forms over the course of a single, magical Alabama New Year's Eve.
