Krátky popis
The Mothers is a dazzling debut about young love, a big secret in a
small community and the moments that haunt us most. All good
secrets have a taste before you tell them, and if we'd taken a
moment to swish this one around our mouths, we might have noticed
the sourness of an unripe secret, plucked too soon, stolen and
passed around before its season. It's the last season of high
school life for Nadia Turner, a rebellious, grief-stricken,
seventeen-year-old beauty. Mourning her own mother's recent
suicide, she takes up with the local pastor's son. Luke Sheppard is
twenty-one, a former football star whose injury has reduced him to
waiting tables at a diner. They are young, it's not serious. But
the pregnancy that results from this teen romance - and the
subsequent cover-up - will have an impact that goes far beyond
their youth. As Nadia hides her secret from everyone, including
Aubrey, her God-fearing best friend, the years move quickly. Soon,
Nadia, Luke and Aubrey are full-fledged adults and still living in
debt to the choices they made that one seaside summer, caught in a
love triangle they must carefully manoeuvre and dogged by the
constant, nagging question: what if they had chosen differently? In
entrancing, lyrical prose, THE MOTHERS asks whether a 'what if' can
be more powerful than an experience itself.
