About this product
Product Information
A rich and rewarding story of love, loss, and the power of family from the bestselling author of Bad Mother and Love and Other Impossible Pursuits . In the aftermath of a devastating wedding day, two families, the Tetherlys and the Copakens, find their lives unraveled by unthinkable loss. Over the course of the next four summers in Red Hook, Maine, they struggle to bridge differences of class and background to honor the memory of the couple, Becca and John. As Waldman explores the unique and personal ways in which each character responds to the tragedy--from the budding romance between the two surviving children, Ruthie and Matt, to the struggling marriage between Iris, a high strung professor in New York, and her husband Daniel--she creates a powerful family portrait and a beautiful reminder of the joys of life. Elegantly written and emotionally gripping, Red Hook Road affirms Waldman's place among today's most talented authors.

"Excellent. . . . A compelling, unique story. . . . Grabs the reader right away." - San Francisco Chronicle "Lovely. . . . Memorable. . . . Waldman's vivid writing makes the reader feel a part of both the wildly beautiful Maine coast and two families' heart-crushing grief." - Chicago Sun-Times "Waldman writes beautifully. . . . [She] keeps her eyes on the road, carrying us into dark territory with wisdom and grace." - The Washington Post "You won't be able to tear yourself away." - Real Simple "This beautiful novel shows us how families cope with the most painful kinds of loss and reminds us that even as grief fractures, it can pave the way for unexpected grace." -Ann Packer, author of The Dive from Clausen's Pier and Songs Without Words "Waldman knits [relationships] together with the pleasing symmetry of a doily. . . . She also constructs an impressive parallel between the vocations of shipbuilding and playing a stringed instrument. . . . Readers will enjoy the ride." - The New York Times Book Review "Articulately plumbs the depths of the parent-child bond with clarity and intense feeling." - USA Today "Waldman writes with practiced skill. . . .

A masterful imagining of the way a single tragic event impacts the psyches and behaviors and dynamics of two families." -Kelly Korrigan, author of The Middle Place and Lift, PRAISE FOR RED HOOK ROAD "A thoroughly gripping and elegantly written story about love, grief, friendship, and the unexpected ways in which disaster brings families together.

I received the "The Incredible Discovery of Noah's Ark" book on 8 December 2023 early within the original eBay estimated delivery date of 7-12 December 2023 tightly wrapped in a poly mailer slightly different than the listing page description with some damage to the spine and pages of the book. After messaging the seller I was generously refunded 50% of the book price. The book is intact with full content. This seller made extra efforts to make this a satisfactory purchase. Thank You!
