The daughter of immigrants, she is well satisfied with the comforts of the suburbs and her reliable husband - but an untimely death, an unexpected illness, and bitter discord at home unravel her expectations. What begins as a cozy family novel becomes an unsettling chronicle, shattering and majestic in its effects, without ever losing its wry touches of humor."--BOOK JACKET.
