Fiction
The author of the highly acclaimed The Fates Will Find
Their
Way returns with a novel about a far-flung family reunited
for one weekend by their father's death. Five minutes before her flight is set to take off, Kate
Pulaski, failed screenwriter and newly failed wife with
scarcely a hundred dollars to her name, learns that her
estranged father has killed himself. More shocked than
saddened by the news, she gives in to her siblings'
request
that she join them, along with her many half-siblings and
most of her father's five former wives, in Atlanta, their
birthplace, for a final farewell. Written with huge heart and bracing wit, REUNION takes
place
over the following four days, as family secrets are
revealed, personal foibles are exposed, and Kate-an
inveterate liar looking for a way to come clean-slowly
begins to acknowledge the overwhelming similarities
between
herself and the man she never thought she'd claim as an
influence, much less a father. Hannah Pittard's "engaging
and vigorous"* prose masterfully illuminates the problems
that can divide modern families—and the ties that prove
impossible to break.
