Description
Turning for Home by Barney Norris Every year, Robert's family gathers at their rambling old house to celebrate his birthday. For decades, it has been a milestone in their lives, bringing together aunts, uncles, distant cousins. But this year, neither Robert nor his granddaughter Kate is sure they can face the party. As the years go by, life takes its toll and the past becomes harder to bear. Yet, for both Robert and Kate, this gathering may become the most important of all. With lyrical prose and a deep understanding of human frailty, Norris crafts a compelling story about family, love, and the marks that time leaves on us. A poignant exploration of the complexities of family life, Turning for Home is a moving and beautiful novel that will resonate with anyone who has ever struggled to come to terms with their past.
