Synopsis

NATIONAL BESTSELLER

A Christian Science Monitor Best Book of the Year

Julia Glass, the bestselling, National Book Award-winning author of Three Junes, returns with a tender, riveting book of two sisters and their complicated relationship.

Louisa Jardine is the older one, the conscientious student, precise and careful: the one who yearns for a good marriage, an artistic career, a family. Clem, the archetypal youngest, is the rebel: committed to her work saving animals, but not to the men who fall for her. In this vivid, heartrending story of what we can and cannot do for those we love, the sisters grow closer as they move further apart. All told with sensual detail and deft characterization, I See You Everywhere is a candid story of life and death, companionship and sorrow, and the nature of sisterhood itself.

About this title

Review

"Rich, intricate and alive with emotion.... An honest portrait of sister-love and sister-hate-interlocking, brave and forgiving-made whole through art." --The New York Times Book Review "Glass writes the sort of novels that you wish would go on forever.... I See You Everywhere is a lovely and heartbreaking book, and it ends far too soon." --The Miami Herald "Nowhere are the ebbs and flows, the complex and often ugly nuances, the bonds and the breaks between sisters more achingly or more piercingly explored." --USA Today "So heartbreakingly luminous that you'd swear Glass had access to your own most secret thoughts." --Redbook "Extraordinarily good.... Unusually rich and complex." --The Boston Globe "One doesn't read so much as sink into a Julia Glass novel.... A haunting dissection of human fragility." --People "Glass is Edith Wharton for the twenty-first century.... Wharton wrote more than forty-eight books in her lifetime. American literature could use a few more from Glass." --Pittsburgh Post-Gazette "Sheer pleasure for readers who love stories about complicated family relationships." --San Francisco Chronicle
