I'll Come to You [electronic resource]. Rebecca Kauffman.
A joyful and tender drama of one "family so richly drawn, so deep and complex, that it contains the whole world" (Emma Straub), from beloved author Rebecca Kauffman A modern story of family, I'll Come to You chronicles intersecting lives over the course of one year—1995—anchored by the anticipation and arrival of a child. With empathy, insight, and humor, Rebecca Kauffman explores overlapping narratives involving a couple whose struggle to become pregnant has both softened and hardened them; a woman whose husband of forty years has left her for reasons he's unwilling to share and the man who is now disastrously attempting to woo her; and a couple in denial about a looming health crisis as well as their son who is fumbling toward middle age and can't stop lying. Ultimately, these storylines converge into a dramatic and harrowing turn of events. With heart, wit, and courage, and through pain, these characters traverse territory that both challenges and defines the bonds of family. "I'll Come to You is a deft, engrossing novel, full of subtle humor and compassion. In scenes as precise and intimate as lighted windows on a dark street, Rebecca Kauffman explores those everyday encounters and accidents that can loom so large they overwhelm a life."—Sofia Samatar, author of Opacities: On Writing and the Writing Life
