All Together Now

di Julie Buxbaum (Autore)

Juniper, 2027

'Told with equal helpings of hilarity and wisdom' Bonnie Garmus, multi-million-copy-bestselling author of Lessons in Chemistry Every ten years or so, Hazel Stein finds herself face to face with every version of herself she ever has been, and ever will be. There's Hazel Stein aged 8, making paper airplanes out of napkins; 18, with a catastrophic fringe and the insecurities to match; 28, undeniably a knockout; 39, flush with the responsibility of new motherhood; 49, terrifyingly bald (the other Hazels can't quite look her in the eye); 57, whose ring finger is suddenly, strangely bare; 68, who's had one too many Botox shots; and 77, with wiry white hair, a gash on her forehead, and a threadbare t-shirt. Together, they tell the story of one woman's life: from an unforgettable one-night stand at the turn of the millennium to friendships that span decades and continents, from the fierce, primal instincts of motherhood to moments of seismic, reality-warping grief. Together, they recount how a single life can add up to an unimaginable bounty: what we owe to the people we used to be, and those we will become. Funny, tender and devastating in turn, All Together Now is a joyous epic that crosses selves and decades to tell the story of one ordinary, extraordinary life, and a celebration of the endlessly surprising process of becoming ourselves.
