For fans of J. Courtney Sullivan, Meg Wolitzer, Claire
Messud, and Emma Straub, a gorgeous and absorbing novel of a
trio of confused souls struggling to find themselves and the
way forward in their lives, set against the spectacular
backdrop of contemporary New York City. Set in the most magical parts of Manhattan—the Upper West
Side, Central Park, Greenwich Village—The Ramblers
explores the lives of three lost souls, bound together by
friendship and family. During the course of one fateful
Thanksgiving week, a time when emotions run high and being
with family can be a mixed blessing, Rowley’s sharply
defined characters explore the moments when decisions are
deliberately made, choices accepted, and pasts reconciled. Clio Marsh, whose bird-watching walks through Central Park
are mentioned in New York Magazine, is taking her
first tentative steps towards a relationship while also
looking back to the secrets of her broken childhood. Her
best friend, Smith Anderson, the seemingly-perfect daughter
of one of New York’s wealthiest families, organizes the
lives of others as her own has fallen apart. And Tate
Pennington has returned to the city, heartbroken but
determined to move ahead with his artistic dreams. Rambling through the emotional chaos of their lives, this
trio learns to let go of the past, to make room for the
future and the uncertainty and promise that it holds.
The Ramblers is a love letter to New York City—an
accomplished, sumptuous novel about fate, loss, hope, birds,
friendship, love, the wonders of the natural world and the
mysteries of the human spirit.
