Patchett Ann Patchett

Tom Lake

THIS SUMMER, DIVE INTO TOM LAKE - THE BREATH-TAKING NEW NOVEL FROM ANN PATCHETT 'One of our greatest living chroniclers of love and marriage ... Expect wonder; Patchett always delivers' ELLE This is a story about Peter Duke who went on to be a famous actor. This is a story about falling in love with Peter Duke who wasn't famous at all. It's about falling so wildly in love with him - the way one will at twenty-four - that it felt like jumping off a roof at midnight. There was no way to foresee the mess it would come to in the end. It's spring and Lara's three grown daughters have returned to the family orchard. While picking cherries, they beg their mother to tell them the one story they've always longed to hear - of the film star with whom she shared a stage, and a romance, years before. Tom Lake is a meditation on youthful love, married love, and the lives parents have led before their children were born. Both hopeful and elegiac, it explores what it means to be happy even when the world is falling apart. ----------------------------- Praise for The Dutch House: 'Patchett leads us to a truth that feels like life rather than literature' Guardian 'The best book I've read in years' Rosamund Lupton 'Her finest novel yet' Sunday Times 'The buzz around The Dutch House is totally justified. Her best yet, which is saying something' John Boyne 'A masterpiece' Cathy Rentzenbrink 'Bliss' Nigella Lawson The Dutch House was a Sunday Times top 10 bestseller w/e 28.09.19
