Voor Reta Winters is het leven als een rimpelloze vijver. Haar huwelijk is goed, ze woont in een heerlijk huis, ze heeft drie fantastische dochters en behalve als vertaalster begint ze ook als schrijfster succesvol te worden. Het geluk kan niet op, tot haar oudste dochter Norah stopt met haar studie. Ze bedelt op straat in Toronto met om haar nek een bord waar GOEDHEID op staat. Wat is er gebeurd? Waar ging het mis?

Work Description

Reta Winters has many reasons to be happy. Then in the spring of her forty-fourth year, all the quiet satisfactions of her well-lived life disappear in a moment: her eldest daughter Norah suddenly runs from the family and ends up mute and begging on a Toronto street corner with a hand-lettered sign reading GOODNESS around her neck.

Piercing and sad, astute and evocative, full of tenderness and laughter, Unless will stand with The Stone Diaries in the canon of Carol Shields’s fiction.
