With her hubby Bernard 2 yrs in the grave, seventy-nine-year-old Harriet Chance places sail by using an ill-conceived Alaskan cruise trip and then discover through some revelations that she's been living days gone by sixty many years of her life under completely bogus pretenses. There, amid the buffets and lounge performers, between the thought appearance of her later husband and the very real arrival of her estranged little girl midway through the cruise trip, Harriet is forced to have a long look again, confronting the truth about pivotal situations that changed the span of her life. Jonathan Evison - bestselling author of Western of Here, The Revised Basic principles of Caregiving, and All About Lulu - has made a bighearted novel with a supremely endearing heroine at its centre. Through Harriet, he paints a bittersweet family portrait of a postmodern everywoman with great warmth, humanity, and laughter. Part dysfunctional love account, part poignant exploration of the mom/daughter relationship, there is nothing what it appears in this story of popularity, reexamination, forgiveness, and, ultimately, healing. It really is sure to appeal to admirers of Evison's previous work, as well as supporters of such freelance writers as Meg Wolitzer, Junot Diaz, and Karen Enjoyment.
