George and Lizzie

A Novel

Edición de la obra George & lizzie

"[An] emotionally riveting debut novel about an unlikely marriage at a crossroads. George and Lizzie have radically different understandings of what love and marriage should be. George grew up in a warm and loving family-- his father an orthodontist, his mother a stay-at-home mom-- while Lizzie grew up as the only child of two famous psychologists, who viewed her more as an in-house experiment than a child to love. Over the course of their marriage, nothing has changed-- George is happy; Lizzie remains ... unfulfilled. When a shameful secret from Lizzie's past resurfaces, she'll need to face her fears in order to accept the true nature of the relationship she and George have built over a decade together. With pitch-perfect prose and compassion and humor to spare, [this] is an intimate story of new and past loves, the scars of childhood, and an imperfect marriage at its defining moments"--
