A NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER and a READ WITH JENNA PICK--A ONCE-IN-A-GENERATION READ
"Dazzling." --The Washington Post
"A magnificent novel." --Geraldine Brooks, Pulitzer Prize-winning author of Horse
"This one will stay with me for years to come." --Miranda Cowley Heller, New York Times bestselling author of The Paper Palace >Spanning thirty-five years, what follows are three alternate and alternating versions of their lives, shaped by Cora's last-minute choice of name. In richly layered prose, The Names explores the painful ripple effects of domestic abuse, the messy ties of family, and the possibilities of autonomy and healing.
Through a prism of what-ifs, Florence Knapp invites us to consider the "one . . . precious life" we are given. Full of hope, this is the story of three names, three versions of a life, and the infinite possibilities that a single decision can spark. It is the story of one family and love's endless capacity to endure, no matter what fate has in store.
The book's brilliantly imaginative structure, propulsive storytelling, and emotional power are certain to make The Names a modern classic.
Florence Knapp has previously written a non-fiction book about a centuries-old method of quilt making, as well as contributing to a book for the Victoria & Albert Museum. She lives just outside London with her husband and their dog. Their two children have now flown the nest. The Names is Knapp's debut novel and will be translated into more than twenty languages.
