About this product

Product Information

An astonishing first novel that traces the lives of a Scottish family over a decade as they confront the joys and longings, fulfillments and betrayals of love in all its guises. In June of 1989 Paul McLeod, a newspaper publisher and recent widower, travels to Greece, where he falls for a young American artist and reflects on the complicated truth about his marriage. . ..Six years later, again in June, Paul's death draws his three grown sons and their families back to their ancestral home. Fenno, the eldest, a wry, introspective gay man, narrates the events of this unforeseen reunion. Far from his straitlaced expatriate life as a bookseller in Greenwich Village, Fenno is stunned by a series of revelations that threaten his carefully crafted defenses. . .. Four years farther on, in yet another June, a chance meeting on the Long Island shore brings Fenno together with Fern Olitsky, the artist who once captivated his father. Now pregnant, Fern must weigh her guilt about the past against her wishes for the future and decide what family means to her. In prose rich with compassion and wit, Three Junes paints a haunting portrait of love's redemptive powers.

  • Excellent Book!!

    I love to read Southern Literature and when this author was reviewed in Southern Living I decided I would try her out. She is a young writer and I love love love her style of writing! This is one of the best books that I have read this summer and I recommend it to everyone! I am going to read all of her novels that are already published and look forward to some new ones soon!

  • Painful truths about silence in families

    I was intrigued by and liked this book, although I can't say I enjoyed it. The author depicts such painful truths about the secrets and desires in relationships that are often thwarted by our best intentions. The round robin of events was a delight.

  • One of a few well written novels I've read this year

    I enjoyed the character development, the clarity of writing and the plot that kept me interested. This novel is well worth the time reading. I passed it on to a good friend as I wanted the Three Junes to be enjoyed again.

  • Three Junes

    THe book was recommended by a friend. I did enjoy most of it but I was somewhat confused about the ending.
