The Royal Tenenbaums
meets
J. D. Salinger
in this “sharply observed and bittersweet family romance with a rock ’n’ roll heart” (
Elle
).
Claudio and Mathilde Simone, once romantic bohemians hopelessly enamored with each other, find themselves nestled in domesticity in New York, running a struggling vinyl record store and parenting three daughters as best they can: Natasha, an overachieving prodigy; sensitive Lucy, with her debilitating heart condition; and Carly, adopted from China and quietly fixated on her true origins.
With prose that is as keen and illuminating as it is whimsical and luminous, debut novelist Christine Reilly tells the unusual love story of this family. Poignant and humane,
Sunday’s on the Phone to Monday
is a deft exploration of the tender ties that bind families together, even as they threaten to tear them apart.
