This is a mind-bending, time travel thriller. Completely ludicrous, but fun nevertheless. Coming out in June 2019.
Elsey is an alcoholic who has been broken by a recent bout with cancer and her memories of a sister who died from cancer as a child. She goes off to a yoga retreat, but it takes a real crisis with her own child that helps her get back on track with her life.
When a Nazi collaborator is shot near Anton's home, his neighbors move the body, placing it in front of Anton's house. When the Nazis show up, they kill Anton's parents and brother, and burn their house down. Many years later, Anton learns the details of what led to these events.
I really enjoyed this story about the intersection of two very different families. One is flamboyant, artistic, and seemingly free; the other is pinned down by society's expectations. When they clash, it's clear that they each want a little of what the other has.
