Item description from seller

A handsome Advance Reading Copy of the first edition/first printing in Fine condition; In Send bygraves, Martha Grimes delivers a dark, humorous, and thought-provoking novel about a family struggling to grapple with the sudden death of their patriarch. Sentimental and at times heartbreaking, the novel follows the Graves family as they adjust to their new reality and try to make sense of the life and death of their patriarch, John.Though John was a complicated man, his death leaves the Graveses rudderless and uncertain. Unable to face the future, the family members retreat into their past, each seeking solace in memories and old wounds. As they grapple with the tragedy, they are forced to reckon with the ways in which John's life affected them, and with the ways in which they continue to affect each other.Martha Grimes's Send is a deft and nuanced exploration of grief, family dynamics, and the ways in which we endure the losses of our own lives. With its razor-sharp dialogue, haunting characters, and deftly; 8vo; FSA.
