Their father, Adam, a brilliant oceanographer, raised them mostly on his own in his remote home on Cape Cod, where the attachment between Ken and Abby deepened into something complicated—and as adults their relationship is strained. Now, years later, the siblings’ lives are still deeply entwined. Ken is a successful businessman with political ambitions and a picture-perfect family and Abby is a talented visual artist who depends on her brother’s goodwill, in part because he owns the studio where she lives and works.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAs the novel opens, Adam is approaching his seventieth birthday, staring down his mortality and fading relevance. He has always managed his bipolar disorder with medication, but he’s determined to make one last scientific breakthrough and so he has secretly stopped taking his pills, which he knows will infuriate his children. Meanwhile, Abby and Ken are both harboring secrets of their own, and there is a new person on the periphery of the family—Steph, who doesn’t make her connection known. As Adam grows more attuned to the frequencies of the deep sea and less so to the people around him, Ken and Abby each plan the elaborate gifts they will present to their father on his birthday, jostling for primacy in this small family unit.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eSet in the fraught summer of 2016, \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"a-text-italic\"\u003eLittle Monsters\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e is a “smart, page-flipping novel…[with] shades of \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"a-text-italic\"\u003eSuccession\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e” (\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"a-text-italic\"\u003eThe Boston Globe\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e) from a writer who knows Cape Cod inside and out—its Edenic lushness and its snakes.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eJuly 11, 2023 by Hutchinson Heinemann\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"vendor-unknown","offers":[{"title":"Very Good \/ Hardcover \/ Adrienne Broudeur","offer_id":51295445188906,"sku":"9781529153798","price":39.0,"currency_code":"ILS","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0734\/4039\/5562\/files\/187665829.jpg?v=1774523990","url":"https:\/\/evasusedbooks.co\/products\/little-monsters","provider":"Eva's Used Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
