A propos de ce titre

Synopsis

Book by Quindlen Anna

Quatri�me de couverture

It is the 1960s, in suburban New York City, and twelve-year-old Maggie Scanlan begins to sense that beneath the calm surface of her peaceful life, things are going strangely wrong.

When her all-powerful grandfather is struck down by a stroke, the reverberations affect Maggie s entire family. Her normally dispassionate father breaks down, her mother becomes distant and unavailable, and matters only get worse when her cousin and her best friend start doing things to each other that leave Maggie confused about sex and terrified of sin.

With all of this upheaval how can she be sure that what she wants is even worth having?

'Quindlen in an intelligent and imaginative writer'

Boston Globe

'Elaborate and playful ... Honest and deeply felt ... Here is the Quindlen wit, the sharp eye for the details of class and manners, [and] the ardent reading of domestic lives'

The New York Times

Through our mission we enhance the dignity and quality of life for individuals and families by strengthening communities, eliminating barriers to opportunity, and helping people in need reach their full potential through learning and the power of work. We intentionally serve marginalized populations within these communities and lift up long-term pathways for individuals who have disabilities and disadvantages, veterans and military families, teens and young adults, and others who face barriers to employment. We are guided by three principles: Inspired by People, Power of the Whole, and Results Matter. We call it The Goodwill Way.
