Women's Fiction
For fans of Anne Tyler and Anna Quindlen, a mesmerizing
portrait of friendship that explores seven women's lives
with a generous embrace and wondrous wisdom Lydia is having a party-it's a party she hosts every year
for six women friends who treasure the midwinter bash. Over
a table laden with a feast of food and wine, the women revel
in sharing newsy updates, simmering secrets, and laughter.
As this particular evening unfolds, Lydia prepares to make a
shattering announcement. As we follow these friends through their party preparations,
we meet flawed but lovable characters who are navigating the
hassles of daily chores while also meditating in stolen
moments on their lives, their regrets, their complicated
relationships, and their deepest desires. When Lydia's
announcement shocks them all, they rediscover the enduring
bonds of friendship and find their lives changing in
unexpected ways. Tender, wryly funny, and exquisitely written, Lydia's Party
poignantly considers both the challenges of everyday life
and of facing our fears while creating characters whose
foibles and feistiness will capture readers' hearts.
