Description
A novel about a family falling apart, The Children's Bach is a masterful exploration of the bonds that hold us together. Athena and Dexter Fox, a seemingly perfect couple, live with their young sons in a small, imperfect house. Their lives are turned upside down when Dexter reconnects with an old friend, Elizabeth, and her musician boyfriend, Philip, and her sister, Vicki. As the Fox family's relationships begin to fray, Garner expertly weighs the costs of commitment against the burdens of liberation.
