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 baby Grace. But now, exhausted and fretting constantly over Grace’s wellbeing, Hannah is reluctant to use the baby to promote the company 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 continuing in the business that she considers to be her life’s only success, Natasha accepts a surprising invitation to meet her Russian birth mother, Luba Solovyova. While Natasha celebrates filling in this missing piece of her past and enjoys the uncritical attention, Hannah feels abandoned, struggling to appear supportive despite her hurt, jealousy, and suspicion of Luba’s motives.
How can Hannah balance the needs of a longed-for infant with those of a beloved adult daughter whose happiness is tied to their mutual business interests – and to 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. A novel for mothers and daughters and those who love them, it’s women’s fiction that’s filled with warmth and humanity.
