Über diesen Titel

Reseña del editor:

A first novel about three black women living in Washington DC, Sisters and Lovers has been a runaway bestseller in the U.S. Frank, funny, fresh and worldly wise it is a story of families and love, heartache and hope, in the tradition of Terry McMillan.

Contraportada:

Beverly, Charmaine and Evelyn are three sisters living in the same Maryland town Washington D.C., each wishing her life were just a little different.

Beverly is twenty-nine and single, a successful magazine editor who would love to be in love. The problem is, no man can meet her high standards. Charmaine longs to finish her degree, but meanwhile she has to juggle a thankless job, a beautiful child, and an irresponsible husband she doesn't quite have the nerve to leave. Evelyn has her own psychology practice and her husband is a partner in a prestigious law firm. She seems to have it made – but there's trouble in paradise, and Evelyn is refusing to face the facts.

Warm and bittersweet, believable and real, 'Sisters & Lovers' is a novel of families and love, heartache and hope, and above all, the triumph of sisterhood.

'A frank and funny tale about the everyday lives of three black women'.
