Description

Leaving Lucy Pear by Anna Solomon is a powerful and moving novel about two women bound together by a secret from their past.

In 1917, Beatrice Haven makes a desperate decision to leave her newborn baby at the foot of a pear tree, watching as another woman claims the child as her own. Ten years later, Bea returns to her uncle's house, seeking refuge from her unhappiness, only to be reunited with Emma Murphy, the woman who has been raising their abandoned daughter.

The story that unfolds is one of love, loss, and self-discovery, set against the backdrop of post-WWI America. With its strong prose and fleet pacing, this novel explores themes of family, identity, and the complexities of human relationships.
