Description
At 52, Samantha Raymond's life begins to unravel. Her mother is ill, her teenage daughter is increasingly remote, and Trump has been elected. As she navigates these challenges, she finds herself staring into the 'Mids' - night-time hours of supreme wakefulness where women of a certain age contemplate their lives. For Sam, this means motherhood, mortality, and the state of an unravelling nation. When she falls in love with a beautiful, decrepit house on the wrong side of town, she buys it on a whim and flees her suburban life - and her family - in search of beauty in the ruins. Dana Spiotta's novel is a virtuosic, singular portrait of a woman seeking sanity and purpose in a world gone mad. With its exhilarating tone and brilliant meditation on mortality and time, this book will keep you turning the pages until the very end.
