Brother and Sister

From the celebrated author of Marrying the Mistress and The Rector's Wife, a keenly observed and elegant new novel about the families we're born into, and the ones we create.

The Washington Post

Trollope is a pointillist of domestic relationships, and she has built an impressive body of work addressing powerful tensions like those that animate Brother and Sister. With well-placed strokes, she brings to life all of her characters, including the complex lives of the birth mothers. She's especially accomplished in her portrayals of children -- by turns humorous, frustrating or heartbreaking, but never precious. — Kate Lehrer

Joanna Trollope, the nationally bestselling author of sixteen other books, lives in Gloucestershire, England.
