HTML:<p><b>In the vein of Mary Beth Keane's <i>Ask Again, Yes</i> and Cynthia D'Aprix Sweeney's <i>The Nest</i>,</b> <b>Tracey Lange's <i>We Are the Brennans</i> explores the staying power of shame—and the redemptive power of love—in an Irish Catholic family torn apart by secrets.</b><br /> When twenty-nine-year-old Sunday Brennan wakes up in a Los Angeles hospital, bruised and battered after a drunk driving accident she caused, she swallows her pride and goes home to her family in New York. But it's not easy. She deserted them all—and her high school sweetheart—five years before with little explanation, and they've got questions.<br /> Sunday is determined to rebuild her life back on the east coast, even if it does mean tiptoeing around resentful brothers and an ex-fiancé. The longer she stays, however, the more she realizes they need her just as much as she needs them. When a dangerous man from her past brings her family's pub business to the brink of financial ruin, the only way to protect them is to upend all their secrets—secrets that have damaged the family for generations and will threaten everything they know about their lives. In the aftermath, the Brennan family is forced to confront painful mistakes—and ultimately find a way forward, together.<br /> <b>A Macmillan Audio production from Celadon Books<br /></b>"Reading this novel is like getting a view through a lighted window on a family sitting around a table after dark. Who are they? What are they talking about? All families have their own story and the ways they tell it to themselves, and untangling the many strands of this one was deep and richly satisfying. Once I started, I couldn't stop. I read it in one long delicious slide." — Sarah Blake, <i>New York Times</i> bestselling author of <i>The Guest Book</i></p>.
