Such a wonderful look into the complexities of family, the choices of parenthood and connection, and how and why separation comes about. 

I loved all the women, even if I didn’t agree with them. William was such a deep exploration of depression and living to be fully understood. 

I loved the
connections to Little Women that the sisters make all through their lives. I was surprised the manuscript Alice was editing was not Sylvie’s novel about the sisters

This is one of those books that dives deeply into the intimate lives of the members of a family. The audiobook was excellently narrated.
