Infertility put her dearest wish out of reach. Now, at 55, she has a newborn and unexpected fame. How can she possibly cope with the demands of both?
Hannah Murrow finally has what she's always wanted. The shocking, some say miraculous, late-in-life pregnancy that turned her into unlikely social media star "St. Hannah" has culminated in the joyous birth of little Grace. But now, exhausted and fretting constantly over Grace's wellbeing, Hannah is reluctant to use the baby to promote the brand that was the brainchild of her adopted daughter, Natasha, jeopardizing their financial security as well as the delicate relationship the two have only recently rebuilt.
Frustrated and insulted by Hannah's ambivalence about the business that she considers to be her life's only success, Natasha accepts a surprising invitation to meet her Russian birth mother, Lubov Solovyova. While Natasha is excited to fill in this missing piece of her past, Hannah feels abandoned, struggling to appear supportive despite her hurt, jealousy, and suspicion of Lubov's motives.
How can Hannah balance the needs of a longed-for infant and a beloved adult daughter—while contending with the arrival of another mother figure who threatens to come between them?
Hannah and Her Daughters is the long-awaited sequel to The Book of Hannah: A Tragicomedy in Three Trimesters. Ideal for fans of Anne Tyler, it's entertaining women's fiction that's filled with warmth, humanity, and truths about the bonds between mothers and daughters.
