Beschreibung

Discover the perfect summer read from the bestselling author of We All Want Impossible Things. 'Sandwich is joy in book form. I laughed continuously, except for the parts that made me cry.' Ann Patchett, bestselling author of Tom Lake 'Engaging, frank, funny and moving' Daily Mail * An instant NEW YORK TIMES bestseller * One of Barnes & Noble BEST BOOKS * STYLIST Book of the Month: 'A gem' * GUARDIAN Book of the Week: 'Wise and exquisitely written' * GRAZIA Book of the month **** One week at golden Cape Cod. The perfect family holiday. What could possibly go wrong? For the past two decades, Rocky has looked forward to her family's yearly escape to the beach. The humble, quirky house they rent has been the site of sweet memories, sunny days, shared mishaps and memories. It is a place where her family comes together and Rocky wants to cling to every moment. Now, sandwiched between her children who are adult enough to be fun but still young enough to need her, and her parents who are ageing but healthy enough, Rocky wants to preserve this precious moment for ever. But with her body in open revolt and surprises invading her peaceful haven, the seesaw of Rocky's life is tipping towards change...

A gem of a novel' Observer 'I adored this novel and am forcing it on everyone I know - Jenny Colgan, author of The Summer Skies 'Newman is truly a master of taking complex and chaotic human emotion and making sense of it' Guardian 'If you want to laugh out loud, tear up and rush to pull out a book in the 35 seconds between subway stops, this sweet, savory, tenderhearted Sandwich fits the bill, and goes down like (bread and) buttah' New York Times New York Times bestseller, July 2024
