Everything Will Be Alright by Tessa Hadley
When Joyce Stevenson is thirteen, her family moves to the south of England to live with their aunt Vera. Vera and her sister Lil aren't at all alike. Vera, a teacher, has unquestioning belief in the powers of education and reason; Lil puts her faith in seances. Joyce is determined to be different: she falls in love with art (and her art teacher). Spanning five decades of extraordinary change in women's lives, Tessa Hadley's Everything Will Be All Right explores the tangled history of one family and the disasters, hopes, compromises, and ambitions of successive generations.Tessa Hadley is the author of six critically acclaimed novels, including Clever Girl and The Past, as well as three short-story collections, the most recent of which won the Edge Hill Short Story Award, Bad Dreams and Other Tales. Her pieces have been published in The New Yorker on a regular basis, and she was awarded the Windham Campbell Award and the Hawthornden Prize in 2016. She is based in London.
