![]() ![]() ![]() Opening with the instantly gripping sentence: "My father, James Witherspoon, is a bigamist," it’s the story of two sisters – Dana and Chaurisse – one whom knows her father’s secret and one who doesn’t. 'Do not miss this can’t-actually-stop-reading-it novel (out 19 March) from the author of the Women's Prize for Fiction-winning An American Marriage. 'This book is as moving, intimate and wise as An American Marriage on the topics of marriage, family and womanhood, and deserves similar acclaim.' Read more impetus, but it’s the double coming-of-age story that gives it heart… shrewd exploration of off-the-record relationships.’ ‘Bigamy is what gives the novel its dramatic. latest novel also studies a way of loving, and of being a family, that doesn’t fit the confines that American society allows or expects.’ It’s hard to resist the momentum of this dual coming-of-age story, and Jones’s imperfect, large-hearted heroines are not soon forgotten.' ![]()
