The Girls by Lori Lansens
Rarely has the experience of being a sister been so poignantly and memorably captured as in Lori Lansens's triumphant novel. The Girls celebrates life's fundamental joys and trials as it presents Rose and Ruby, sisters destined to live inseparably but blessed with distinct sensibilities that enrich and complicate their shared experiences-of growing up, of finding their way in the world, of saying good-bye.Readers who encounter the girls will find it hard to resist falling under their spell.Before authoring her first novel, Rush Home Road, LORI LANSENS was a successful screenwriter whose work was translated into twelve languages and published in fifteen countries. Her second novel, The Girls, was a worldwide bestseller and a Richard & Judy book club pick in the United Kingdom, selling 300,000 copies. Her third book, The Wife's Tale, was a national bestseller, as was her fourth novel, The Mountain Story, which was praised by the Globe and Mail as an almost heartbreaking and forceful feat of narrative. Her sixth novel, This Little Light, continued the astonishing pattern by becoming a national success. Lansens, who was born and reared in Chatham, Ontario, now resides in California.
