Three Junes, Paperback / softback Book

Three Junes Paperback / softback

Paperback / softback

Description

In this captivating debut novel, Julia Glass depicts the life and loves of the McLeod family during three crucial summers spanning a decade.

Paul McLeod, patriarch of a Scottish family and a retired newspaper editor and proprietor, is on a package tour of Greece after the death of his wife.

The story of his departure from the family home in Scotland and late gesture towards some sort of freedom gives way to his eldest son's life (Fenno).

Fenno protects his heart by putting himself under emotional quarantine throughout his life as a young gay man in Manhattan.

When he returns home for his father's funeral, this emotional isolation cannot be sustained when he is confronted by a choice that puts him at the centre of his family and its future.

Three Junes is a novel about how we live and how family ties (those that we make as well as those that we are born into) can offer redemption and joy.
