SynopsisAlice Hoffman casts her spell over a Long Island neighborhood filled with dreamers and dreams. In a dazzling series of family portraits, she evokes the world of the Samuelson's -- a family torn apart by tragedy and divorce. Told in alternating voices, these stories are both disturbing and healing, each a lesson of survival and a reminder of the ties of blood and the power of friendship. Jane smiley has said that "a reader is in good hands with Alice Hoffman", and once again in her expert hands, everyday life is magically transformed.
