A review by cathylpowell
Mum & Dad by Joanna Trollope

4.0

Monica has lived in Spain for over 20 years. She followed her husband Gus as he wanted to leave England to get away from his overbearing father. Her elder two children Sebastian and Katie stayed behind at boarding school. But the youngest Jake was educated in Spain.

Now Gus has had a stroke and the family are back together, the siblings at least as well as Jake’s wife Bella and his daughter Mouse. But what will happen to the vineyard in the future if Gus can’t manage it.

What follows after is an interesting portrayal of family life as it appears that nobody has a perfect life.

A great read.
