Description

|
|
|
In this novel from the Governor General's Award–winning author of A Complicated Kindness, we meet the Troutmans. Hattie is living in Paris but has just been dumped by her boyfriend. Min, her sister back in Canada, is on the verge of a breakdown. And Min's two kids, Logan and Thebes, are not talking and talking way too much, respectively. Following Thebes' pleading phone call, Hattie returns home to find her sister on her way to a psychiatric ward, and so hatches a plan to find the kids' long-lost father. With only the most tenuous lead to go on, she piles Logan and Thebes into the family van, and they head south. "Funny and uplifting, the Troutmans' fragile unit is a jubilant tribute to families everywhere."—Psychologies (UK)
