About
Author

With the same combination of humor and honesty that animates her nonfiction works Operating Instructions and Bird by Bird, Lamott's new novel portrays a not-untypical family for whom the joys and sorrows of everyday life are magnified by the unexpected. By bringing normally subsurface issues into relief, Lamott asks big questions in intimate ways: What keeps a family together? What are the small heartbreaks that tear at us? What happens to grief when it goes underground? And what road must we walk with our flawed and crooked hearts?

Anne Lamott is the author of the New York Times bestsellers Hallelujah Anyway; Help, Thanks, Wow; Small Victories; Stitches; Some Assembly Required; Grace (Eventually); Plan B; Traveling Mercies; Bird by Bird; and Operating Instructions. She is also the author of seven novels, including Imperfect Birds and Rosie. A past recipient of a Guggenheim Fellowship and an inductee to the California Hall of Fame, she lives in Northern California. Learn more about Anne Lamott
