批評家のレビュー

"A book with so much grace, wit, and resonance - this is one you'll read and reread. I surely did. I laughed, I cried, I pondered, I mourned. I took these characters deeply into my heart. Hamilton at her amazing best. A timeless classic, in its first appearance." (Karen Joy Fowler, best-selling author of We Are All Completely Beside Ourselves and winner of the 2014 PEN/Faulkner Award)
"In The Excellent Lombards, the wonderfully gifted Jane Hamilton explores the lives of a family bound together and driven apart by land, money, and inheritance. How intimately Hamilton understands her heroine's devotion to the apple orchard and how brilliantly she evokes the wages of time." (Margot Livesey, author of The Flight of Gemma Hardy)
" The Excellent Lombards is everything you could ask for in a coming-of-age novel - funny, insightful, observant, saturated with hope and melancholy. Jane Hamilton's novel about a young girl's life on an apple orchard is full of oddball characters and tender scenes that will linger in your memory." (Tom Perrotta, author of Little Children and The Leftovers)

あらすじ・解説

From the internationally best-selling author of The Book of Ruth and A Map of the World, a heartfelt coming-of-age story that Karen Joy Fowler calls "a timeless classic".

Mary Frances "Frankie" Lombard is fiercely in love with her family's sprawling apple orchard and the tangled web of family members who inhabit it. Content to spend her days planning capers with her brother, William, competing with her brainy cousin, Amanda, and expertly tending the orchard with her father, Frankie desires nothing more than for the rhythm of life to continue undisturbed. But she cannot help being haunted by the historical fact that some family members end up staying on the farm and others must leave.

Change is inevitable, and threats of urbanization, disinheritance, and college applications shake the foundation of Frankie's roots. As Frankie is forced to shed her childhood fantasies and face the possibility of losing the idyllic future she had envisioned for her family, she must decide whether loving something means clinging tightly or letting go.
