Tending to Virginia

"A profound picture of the legacies of families, one that will stay in the reader's mind." --The Memphis Commercial Appeal Virginia Suzanne Ballard is going home to Saxapaw, North Carolina, to sort things out--and to have the people she loves best help her through a difficult pregnancy. The reunion is bittersweet. For as three generations of marvelous women tend to Virginia, long-held secrets are revealed, half-hidden truths confessed, and precious wisdom gained--of letting go and moving on. . . . "Celebrates human connection, not the sort of passionate and exotic connection that all these women imagine, fear and desire, so much as the steady comfort of the familiar, the known, the reliable, which is perhaps synonymous with family." --Atlanta Journal & ConstitutionMcCorkle, Jill is the author of 'Tending to Virginia' with ISBN 9780816146987 and ISBN 0816146985.
