New York Times bestselling author Joyce Maynard returns with How the Light Gets In, the eagerly anticipated follow-up to her beloved novel Count the Ways.
In this heartrending multigenerational story, the indomitable matriarch Eleanor and her family navigate through 15 years as their lives play out against a uniquely American backdrop and the events that transform their world—climate change, the January 6 insurrection, school violence—along with later-life love, parental alienation, and steadfast friendship. With touching insight, Maynard paints an indelible portrait of characters both familiar and new who are making their way over rough, messy, and treacherous terrain to find their way to what is, for each, a place to call “home.”
Joyce Maynard is the author of 12 previous novels and 5 books of nonfiction, as well as the syndicated column “Domestic Affairs.” Her bestselling memoir, At Home in the World, has been translated into 16 languages. Her novels To Die For and Labor Day were both adapted for film.
