Résumé du livre
Anna Quindlen is a journalist, novelist, and Pulitzer Prize-winning columnist. In 1998, her novel One True Thing was made into a hit film starring Meryl Streep and Renée Zellwegger. Since then, she’s published 13 books, including Lots of Candles, Plenty of Cake, and Still Life with Bread Crumbs. She became a grandmother in 2016.
Quin’s journey into fatherhood marked a profound transformation, redirecting his insatiable curiosity from literature and history to understanding his son, Arthur. Despite initial doubts about parenting, Quin’s love for Arthur melted his logical exterior, as seen when he abandoned sleep training after just ten minutes of hearing his son cry. Anna, Quin’s mother, takes pride in his devotion, valuing the raising of good people over traditional measures of success. As a grandmother, Anna embraces her role as a choice rather than an obligation, learning Mandarin to connect with Arthur and respecting boundaries set by Quin and Lynn. This shift reflects the evolving role of grandparents, who now actively engage in their grandchildren’s lives while adapting to modern parenting norms. Arthur, born into a multicultural family, represents the future of an increasingly diverse America, embodying the blending of distinct histories while forging his own unique identity.
