Praise for The Condition
‘With humour, grace and an abiding compassion that is becoming her signature, Jennifer Haigh illuminates the dark tangle of desire and deed that is the family, that crucible we so often yearn to flee yet keep coming back to again and again. The Condition is unsentimental, compelling and moving, and i urge you to read it!’
Andre Dubus III
NYT bestselling author of House of Sand and Fog
‘The ailment at the centre of this remarkable novel is the human condition itself. Jennifer Haigh has written a sprawling, emotionally gripping account of one family’s troubled history, enlivened by her formidable intelligence and deep insight into her character’s hearts and minds.’
Tom Perrotta, bestselling author of Little Children
‘Haigh creates a realistic family dynamic from richly drawn characters, capturing the family members’ various expectations of assumptions about one another. Compelling; highly recommended for all fiction collections.’
Library Journal
Jennifer Haigh is the author of the critically acclaimed Mrs Kimble, for which she won the Pen/Hemingway Award, and a second novel Baker Towers was equally well recieved. She grew up in a small town in Pennsylvania and now lives in Hull, Massachusetts. This is her third novel.
