Housekeeping: A Novel

Farrar; Straus and Giroux
Year

Paperback
Pages

Two sisters learning different ways to survive loss, a house that holds too much water and memory. Robinson's sentences move like lake water—clear on the surface, mysterious underneath. The story accumulates weight slowly, inevitably. This is for readers who trust literature to work on them over time, who understand that some books change you without announcing their intentions. People who know that abandonment and rescue sometimes look identical.
