Description
The Awkward Age by Francesca Segal is a moving domestic novel about two families uniting in imperfect harmony. After five years of widowhood, Julia finds herself deeply in love again, but her daughter Gwen's feelings towards James and his son Nathan threaten to disrupt the new happiness.
As Julia navigates her complicated relationships with her children, Segal explores the challenges of building a blended family and finding beauty in the mess and complexity of what comes before. A story about standing by those we love, even when they hurt us, The Awkward Age is a poignant exploration of family, love and the human condition.
