The Things You'll Never Know
“Nobody delves as deep into the guts of motherhood as Ashley Audrain; she really is in a league of her own.” —Lisa JewellFrom the New York Times bestselling author of The Push, a bold, unputdownable story of motherhood, desire, betrayal, and loss told by a mother after her own death.“All those moments in life that mark a before, and an after.

They’ve found her on the hallway floor. The double doors slam on the ambulance, and Fiona watches it take her body away—but how can that be, if she’s still here in her home, with her family? That’s when she realizes her worst fear has come true: Fiona is dead.In the days that follow, Fiona moves quietly among them, as they become increasingly suspicious about her death. Everyone seems to be hiding something—her depressive husband, her devoted best friend, her estranged younger sister, her precocious six-year-old son, and most of all, Fiona herself. That is, until her teenage daughter discovers Fiona’s diary—and the stunning betrayal she had been hiding.Exploring the performative identities of womanhood, the cost of being good, and what we owe ourselves and each other in the face of desire, Ashley Audrain's daring, thought-provoking novel asks: will you find who you really are, before you die?

Sussurri
I Loverly, proprietari della casa più lussuosa di Harlow Street, hanno organizzato un pomeriggio di fine estate tra amici: un party favoloso dal primo all'ultimo dettaglio, ma solo fino a quando Whitney Loverly, l'impeccabile padrona di casa, donna magnetica che richiama in egual modo malevolenze e ammirazione, si scaglia urlando contro il primogenito di dieci anni. Una scenata che gela all'istante l'atmosfera festaiola e gli invitati. Nove mesi più tardi, verso mezzanotte, quello stesso bambino cade dalla finestra della sua cameretta ed entra in coma. Whitney gli siede accanto nella stanza d'ospedale satura di apprensione e angoscia, rifiutandosi di parlare con chiunque, compresa la sua migliore amica Blair, di cui non riesce nemmeno a sopportare la vista. I fatti che seguono nei tre giorni successivi, mentre si consuma il dramma del piccolo Xavier, la cui sorte è sospesa in un fermo immagine, stringono il campo sulle famiglie di Harlow Street. In particolare, sulle tre donne che ruotano intorno a Whitney - Blair, Rebecca, Mara - di cui vengono svelati segreti e bugie: sussurri, che a poco a poco s'insinuano sotto la spessa coltre che ha sempre protetto, o meglio coperto, i rapporti di buon vicinato. I sussurri sono le invidie, i desideri, le confusioni, le intuizioni silenziate; e Ashley Audrain si conferma maestra di seduzione nel delineare le paure e la furia delle donne quando diventano madri, quando diventano amiche, ogni volta che scelgono.

La spinta
Essere madri è il mestiere più difficile del mondo. Una verità incontrovertibile, soprattutto per una donna come Blythe. Eppure, nonostante la sua storia, ci aveva provato ad avere la famiglia perfetta. Pensa a questo ora, seduta in macchina alla vigilia di Natale, mentre spia la nuova vita di suo marito, e due occhi la spiano di rimando: Violet, la sua enigmatica figlia. Negli anni, Blythe si è chiesta se sia stata la sua infanzia fatta di vuoti e solitudini a impedirle di essere una buona madre, o se invece qualcosa di incomprensibile e guasto si nasconda dietro le durezze e lo sguardo ribelle di Violet. Quando ne parlava con Fox, il marito ormai ex, lui minimizzava, fino al giorno di quel tragico incidente che ha cambiato le loro vite. Adesso Blythe è pronta a raccontare la sua verità, e la sua voce ci guida dentro la complessità del rapporto tra una madre e una figlia, esplorandone senza pudori gli abissi. Viscerale, onesto fino alla brutalità, la lettura della Spinta colpisce come un pugno dritto allo stomaco.
