Inhaltsangabe

Her pregnancy forces Rebecca Monroe--married to a scientist who is a firm believer in genetic disposition not fate--to reassess her own own offbeat, sometimes dysfunctional family history, including a loving mother obsessed with holiday trifle, an aging hippie aunt, an overly imaginative sister, and a grandmother hiding a lifelong secret. A first novel. 25,000 first printing.

Über die Autorin bzw. den Autor

Nominated for the Best Specialist Writer/British Press Award, Carole Cadwalladr writes for newspapers including The Daily Telegraph and lives in the UK. The Family Tree is her first novel. BACKCOVER: "The very cleverness of its central motif--a dissertation on the expression of genetic traits, mostly through the evidence of prime-time soap opera--makes The Family Tree a notable debut. Carole Cadwalladr takes the reader deep under the skin of one unhappy, even cursed and yet utterly ordinary family. Through the eyes of a character so honest and doggedly hopeful, we see our own selves." --Jacquelyn Mitchard

“This is a jewel of a book. I loved it. Carol Cadwalladr is remarkably talented, and a very funny writer.” --Anna Maxted

“Weeks after finishing The Family Tree, I catch myself wondering how the Monroe family is getting on. Full of interesting facts, expertly and seamlessly slipped into a compelling narrative, Carole Cadwalladr has written a wonderful novel that is hilarious and tragic at the same time.” --Emily Barr
