Description
Hoffman is at her haunting, thought-provoking best with these interconnected stories about a Long Island family, the Samuelsons, and the lessons in survival and transformation that life brings to every family. "Moving and deadpan funny. . . . Epiphanies about passion, pain, and resiliency induce smiles and shivers in equal measure."--"Entertainment Weekly."
