Description
Austin King's decision to invite his Southern relatives to stay proves disastrous. By the time they leave, his reputation and marriage have suffered irreparable damage. Against the backdrop of small-town Illinois at the turn of the 20th century, Maxwell explores the seeds of tragedy that can be found in seemingly happy families. The perfectly-drawn setting of this novel provides a nuanced exploration of family dynamics and the fragility of relationships. As the story unfolds, the author skillfully uncovers the underlying tensions that can simmer beneath the surface of even the most established families. William Maxwell's thoughtful portrayal of life in small-town Illinois at the turn of the 20th century offers a unique insight into the social and cultural context of this period.
