概要

Brought to you by Penguin.

For fans of Elizabeth Strout and Barbara Kingsolver: Beautifully observed portrait of marriage, divorce and reconciliation as an estranged couple go on a road trip to uncover a family mystery.

It’s irksome to her, how well she knows this man, how much he has changed and how exactly the same he is ...

Kathleen and Yannick have not spoken for nineteen years, not since what happened with their daughter.

Now, there’s unexpected news from the other side of the country, and the call for a road trip they can only make together.

As they rattle over two thousand miles in a pick-up, through forests, over mountains and into service stations, an alluring history reveals itself: of fierce love, complicated ex-wives and headstrong children, and of a unique bond that never really went away.

As they drive, argue, gossip and reminisce, an unexpected future for this once estranged couple begins to emerge.

MOON ROAD captures the wonder and grief of watching our children grow up; of recovering from long buried pain, and rediscovering those closest to us when we think we know all there is to know; and of learning to live and love in a completely new way.

批評家のレビュー

Moon Road reads like a darker, gruffer blue-collar version of Elizabeth Strout’s novel, Oh, William! ... a slow-burn story about people who are learning to live with the unthinkable and the unknowable. Leipciger has written an intelligent, nuanced book that doesn’t let off fireworks or rely on catchy concepts. Instead, she places her faith in quiet observations about the contradictory elements that make up our relationship with ourselves and those we love. It is, refreshingly, a novel for grown-ups.
Set against the monumental grandeur of the mountains, this is a deliberate slow burn, sensitive but unsentimental, with the central mystery secondary to the novel’s humane, memory-lingering exploration of life and hope in the shadow of loss
A road trip with heart…a truly divine book, I loved both its simplicity and depth
Kathleen is a wonderful character – spikey and obstinate, but also vulnerable and big-hearted
A beautifully imagined portrait…a melancholy, meditative and simply gorgeous written story about two people, and enduring love
A deeply humane story by one of my favourite writers. Tough, tender, wonderful
A whip-smart take on the classic road trip, with a compulsive bread-crumb plot, Moon Road is at once a candid portrait of ageing, an astute primer on parenting, and a masterful novel of love, loss, and navigating life's darkest moments
A road trip into the human heart, wise and tough and generously alive, tracing through Kathleen and Yannick’s journey the slow alchemy by which loss tears people apart, and then sometimes brings them back together again
Read this! A love story, a tragedy, a road trip. Some of the best writing you'll read. Definitely one of my contenders for Books of the Year
A brilliant, compassionate novel that unflinchingly lays bare what we can’t know about those we love and what we can’t forget. Moon Road is self-assured, keenly-observant, heart-wrenching storytelling. Every page is a delight, leading to an ending that left me absolutely breathless. Beautiful, clever, captivating.
