The Mistress’s Daughter<br />
May We Be Forgiven<br />
A Novel<br />
A. M. Homes<br />
In this vivid, transfixing new novel, A. M. Homes presents a<br />
darkly comic look at twenty-first-century domestic life and the<br />
possibility of personal transformation. Harold Silver has spent a<br />
lifetime watching his more successful younger brother, George,<br />
acquire a covetable wife, two kids, and a beautiful home in the<br />
suburbs of New York City. When George’s murderous temper<br />
results in a shocking act of violence, both men are hurled into<br />
entirely new lives. May We Be Forgiven digs deeply into the near<br />
biblical intensity of fraternal relationships, our need to make<br />
sense of things, and our craving for connection. It is an unnerving<br />
tale of unexpected intimacies and of how one deeply fractured<br />
family might begin to put itself back together.<br />
