Description
A whip-smart novel about modern motherhood and sibling rivalry, Grown Ups is a humorous and thought-provoking exploration of family life. Written by Norway's rising star Marie Aubert, this book is well suited to readers who have ever felt the fear of being overtaken by a sibling or struggled to navigate a new future. Ida, a forty-year-old architect, finds herself navigating the challenges of modern adulthood, from Tinder to freezing her eggs. Stuck in the idyllic Norwegian countryside for a family gathering, Ida is regressing and fighting with her younger sister, Marthe. But when some supposedly wonderful news heightens tensions further, Ida is forced to mark out new milestones of her own. This novel is an exhilarating and unexpectedly devastating exploration of identity, family, and the complexities of modern life.
