The quandary of the younger sister – what to do when it had already been done…

For as long as Lucy can remember, she’s been caught between loyalty to her rootless, idealistic mother and devotion to her fierce and exacting sister, Bea. But as the sisters come of age and embark on their own experiments – in love, drugs, work, motherhood – they find their lives, and their relationships, increasingly in turmoil. Can their love for each other transcend the damages of the past?

Readers love My Sister and Other Lovers
Gorgeously sad ... a beautiful and at times desperately painful voyage into maturity
A beautiful book ... There is so much yearning and wisdom within its pages
One of my very favorite writers ever - as soon as I finished this I thought I want to read it again
