"A novel about a woman named Maisie and her growing family, exploring themes of womanhood, modern family, and the interior landscape of maternal life"-- At night Maisie Moore dreams that her life is the looming mortgages and credit card debt have magically vanished, and she can raise her four children, including newborn Esme, on an undulating current of maternal bliss. Then she jolts awake and remembers the real-world money problems to be resolved amid the long days of grocery shopping, gymnastics practices, and soccer games. Over the course of a single day in which Maisie and her husband take their children to pick apples, she begins to rethink motherhood, childhood, and love. - adapted from jacket |
