JEWISH AUTHORS & IDEAS SERIES: Laura Zigman
September 19, 2023 @ 12:00 pm - 2:00 pm
JCC MetroWest presents, Laura Zigman, “Small World”
From bestselling author Laura Zigman comes a heartfelt novel about two offbeat and newly divorced sisters who move in together as adults and finally reckon with their childhood.
A heartfelt novel about two offbeat and newly divorced sisters who move in together as adults hoping to forge the close relationship they never had as kids. Instead, their relationship frays. They rarely discuss the loss of their other sister, Eleanor, who was significantly disabled and died when she was only ten years old. Zigman deftly moves between family timelines, sharing glimmers of the girls’ painful upbringing alongside their present-day renavigation of life as divorcées, housemates, and sisters. A compassionate, often funny examination of shared family grief and love.
