A memorable portrayal of a family and damaged relationships, this richly rewarding fiction explores the complexities of legacy and forgiveness. At the center is Ingrid Olssen, a brilliant artist whose death prompts her daughters, Mattie and Nora, to fulfill her last wishes: to scatter her ashes in the canyon and her paintings in the sea. As they embark on this emotional journey, they confront the painful scars of their past, revealing that the ties that bind them may also threaten to break them. The narrative is both devastating and hilarious, blending tenderness with shocking revelations. It resonates with fans of emotional family dramas, offering insights into the burdens of motherhood, sisterhood, and the impact of trauma. Praise highlights its depth and psychological complexity, with critics noting the beautiful writing and the profound exploration of familial bonds. The story is described as a funny, heartbreaking examination of art, celebrity, and the often painful dynamics between mothers and daughters. This compelling tale promises to linger in the minds of readers long after the final pages, making it a must-read for the summer.
