Through every family run memories which bind it together - despite everything. The Tulls of Baltimore were no exception. Abandoned by her salesman husband, Pearl is left to bring up her three children alone - Cody, a flawed devil, Ezra, a flawed saint, and Jenny, errant and passionate. Now as Pearl lies dying, stiffly encased in her pride and solitude, the past is unlocked and with its secrets.
"Excellently done; the minutiae of domestic landscapes, the lunatic irrationality of family quarrels, the torments of sibling rivalry" Sunday Telegraph "Funny, heart-hammering, wise...superb entertainment" New York Times Book Review "A terrific writer... She's changed my perception on life" -- Anna Chancellor "A classic of contemporary Americana... variously funny and horrifying and finally, quietly, terribly moving" Los Angeles Times "A book that should join those few that every literate person will have to read" Boston Globe
