Samenvatting
&;Raw, surprising and ultimately uplifting, Allison Larkin&;s The People We Keep will break your heart a million different ways before putting it back together again.&; &;Julia Claiborne Johnson, author of Be Frank with Me
The People we Keep is a &;big-hearted and deeply moving novel&; (Bruce Holsinger, author of The Gifted School) from the bestselling author of Stay and Swimming for Sunlight about a young songwriter longing to find a home in the world.
Little River, New York, 1994: April Sawicki is living in a run-down motorhome, flunking out of school, and picking up shifts at the local diner. But when April realizes she&;s finally had enough&;enough of her selfish, absent father and barely surviving in an unfeeling town&;she decides to make a break for it. Stealing a car and with only her music to keep her company, April hits the road, determined to live life on her own terms.
She manages to scrape together a meaningful existence as she travels, encountering people and places she&;s never dreamed of, and could never imagine deserving. From lifelong friendships to tragic heartbreaks, April chronicles her journey in the beautiful music she creates as she discovers that home is with the people you choose to keep.
&;Allison Larkin knows her characters so well,&; (Rainbow Rowell, #1 New York Times bestselling author of Eleanor & Park) and brings her &;tender, and real&; (Taylor Jenkins Reid, author of Daisy Jones & The Six) prose to this unflinching, lyrical tale that is perfect for anyone who has ever yearned for the fierce power of belonging or to understand the profound beauty of a family found along the way.
