Bestselling Novelist Catherine Newman “Wreck”

The bestselling author of “Sandwich” is back with a novel full of laughter and heart. If you loved the characters of “Sandwich” on vacation, wait until you join them at home two years later. (And if this is your first meeting with this crew, get ready to laugh and cry—and relate.) Rocky, still anxious, nostalgic, and funny, is home with her husband Nick and their daughter Willa. Their son, Jamie, has taken a new job in New York, and Mort, Rocky’s widowed father, has moved in. It all couldn’t be more ridiculously “normal.” With her signature wit and wisdom, Catherine Newman explores the hidden rules of family and the gnarly fact that people—no matter how much you love them—are not always exactly who you want them to be.

Books available from Left Bank Books.
