Buchbeschreibung Paperback. Zustand: new. Paperback. The award-winning and New York Times bestselling author of Beautiful Children has created an unflinching yet deeply humane portrait of a young familys journey through a medical crisis, laying bare a couples love and fears as they fight for everything thats important to them. New York, 1993. Alice Culvert is a caring wife, a doting new mother, a loyal friend, and a soulful artista fashion designer who wears a baby carrier and haute couture with equal aplomb. In their loft in Manhattans gritty Meatpacking District, Alice and her husband, Oliver, are raising their infant daughter, Doe, delighting in the wonders of early parenthood. Their life together feels so vital and full of promise, which makes Alices sudden cancer diagnosis especially staggering. In the span of a single day, the couples focus narrows to the basic question of her survival. Though they do their best to remain brave, each faces enormous pressure: Oliver tries to navigate a labyrinthine healthcare system and handle their mounting medical bills; Alice tries to be hopeful as her body turns against her. Bracing themselves for the unthinkable, they must confront the new realities of their marriage, their strengths as partners and flaws as people, how to nourish love against all odds, and what it means to truly care for another person. Inspired by the authors life, Alice & Oliver is a deeply affecting novel written with stunning reserves of compassion, humor, and wisdom. Alice Culvert is an extraordinary charactera woman of incredible heart and spiritwho will remain in memory long after the final page.
