A Southern Family

Summary

This engrossing best-seller from Gail Godwin is a profound portrait of family life, rich in insight and psychological entanglements. Godwin takes us inside the hearts and minds of members of the Quick family, whose raw-edged emotions are stirred up by a visit home. An inexplicably violent death and painful confrontations leave every family member forever changed, but their pain ultimately leads to healing, understanding, and wisdom.
