Résumé
"An affecting, deeply honest novel; at the same time, a lacerating indictment of our modern health care system." - Kirkus Reviews"Montpelier Tomorrow is a beautifully written, superbly constructed novel which will almost certainly be the best Family Life/Literary Fiction novel you will read this year."- Books Butterfly Editorial Reviews Everyone thought Colleen Gallagher had it all together: a successful career, a loving family, and a knack for solving problems.
However, caring for aged parents has left her little time to nurture a relationship with her emotionally distant daughter. The birth of a second grandchild gives her an excuse to pack her bags and relocate to Washington DC. But when her son-in-law falls ill, this kindergarten teacher and delighted grandma must change her focus from the little ones to the grownups. Colleen's daughter clings to the hope that she and her husband can make the most of their remaining time together - romantic getaways and date nights out.
The more Colleen tries to penetrate the fog of denial, the more her daughter pushes away, anger followed by withering silence. As Colleen juggles the multiple roles of grandma, cook, and caregiver, she discovers that even her superhuman efforts and a special "last" Christmas in Vermont can't fix what's wrong. Maybe nothing can. Should she save her family or save herself?If you enjoy flawed yet heroic characters and a powerful mix of pathos and humor, then you won't want to miss Montpelier Tomorrow.
This beautifully written, literary novel is a testament to the resilience of the human spirit. Buy Montpelier Tomorrow today. Winner of the Gold Medal for Drama from Readers' Favorites International Book Awards "Montpelier Tomorrow is an exceptional read. A mix of sadness and humor, it is indeed a story that should be read many times." -US REVIEW OF BOOKS "...characters are vivid, relatable, and all too perfectly human." -JEWELL PARKER RHODES, author of Magic City and Sugar "...an engrossing account of the impossible choices faced by caregivers." -KATHERINE SHONK, author of The Red Passport and Happy Now? "Each time I have reread this novel, I have felt rewarded by the connection it offers to the central character, Colleen.
I can think of no single page in which her voice is not an irreplaceable gift to the reader."-KEVIN MCILVOY, author of The Fifth Station and Little Peg
