The Light in Other Houses
“The Light in Other Houses is about infertility and female rage, finding one’s self, joy and pleasure, amidst disappointment and uncertainty. Beautiful, breathtakingly written, tender in a way that surprises and delights, and also somehow razor sharp.” —Lynn Steger Strong, author of Want For fans of Catherine Newman’s Sandwich and Rufi Thorpe’s Margo’s Got Money Troubles, a sharp and moving debut about a woman navigating desire’s twists and turns—for motherhood, love, and found family.
