| book description |

‘Unsparing and tender’ Colm Tóibín, author of Brooklyn ‘A brilliant novel from our most brilliant of writers’ Colum McCann, author of Apeirogon 'A quietly stunning achievement' Ocean Vuong, author of On Earth We're Briefly Gorgeous As the world changes around them, a family weathers the storms of growing up, growing older, falling in and out of love, losing the things that are most precious – and learning to go on. In a cosy brownstone in Brooklyn, the veneer of domestic bliss is beginning to crack. A married couple does their best to hide their growing rift from their children. A brother seeks solace from his break-up in a glamorous online avatar. A son takes his first uncertain steps towards independence, and a daughter obsesses over keeping her family safe. Set on the same day for three consecutive years and against the unsettling backdrop of the pandemic, Day is a searing, exquisitely crafted meditation on growing older, love and loss and the limitations of family life, from the brilliant mind of Pulitzer Prize winner Michael Cunningham. 'A wrenchingly tender book' Financial Times 'Through its beautiful feel for all that’s fragile and elusive in life, it finds richness and value in the most seemingly decadent, and universal, concerns’ Telegraph
