`Quindlen's provocative novel will have you flipping through the pages of your own family history and memories even as you can't stop reading about the Millers . . . A coming-of-age story that reminds us that the past continues to wash over us even as we move away from the places and events that formed us' * Chicago Tribune * 'Stunning . . . The matriarchal theme is at the heart of Miller's Valley. Miriam pushes her smart daughter to consider college, and other women - a teacher, a doctor, a benefactor - will raise Mimi up past the raging waters that swirl in her heart' * The Washington Post * `Quindlen invests her tale with rare pathos and even rarer psychological acumen . . . the honesty of her storytelling is exemplary' * Sunday Telegraph * `We are so lucky to have Anna Quindlen in our literary lives. With her big heart and her amazing humanity she reminds us all of our blessings' -- Alice Hoffman, bestselling author of The Dovekeepers `A breathtakingly moving look at a family' * USA Today * 'Qualities and shades of love are this writer's strong suit, and she has the unusual talent for writing about them with so much truth and heart that one is carried away on a tidal wave of involvement and concern' -- Elizabeth Jane Howard 'Mesmerizing. Quindlen makes her characters so richly alive, so believable, that it's impossible not to feel every doubt and dream they harbor . . . Overwhelmingly moving' * The New York Times *
Contraportada:
Mimi Miller's family have lived in Miller's Valley for generations and at times it feels like nothing ever changes - until now when the town is under threat.
But as Mimi looks back on the span of her life in this place, she confronts the toxicity of secrets, the dangers of gossip, the flaws of marriage, the risks and inequalities of friendship, loyalty and passion.
Home, she acknowledges, is somewhere it's just as easy to feel lost as contented.
