Description

[Machine Translation] California, 1965. Two mothers, two fathers, and six children become one family when her mother, Beverly Keating, and prosecutor Albert Cousins fall in love at young Franny's christening. They are not related by blood, nor do they live under the same roof. Still, the six children, who saw each other every summer, shared their frustrations and irritations with their parents, and developed a strange sense of solidarity. This bond is unexpectedly put to the test when Franny, now an adult, tells a writer about her past. A collection of people loosely connected across time and distance. Bestselling author Ann Patchett presents a story of community that transcends the boundaries of family relationships. A #1 New York Times Bestseller, a finalist for the National Book Critics Circle Award, and a Best Book of the Year in a leading magazine... A remarkable work that has created a great deal of buzz in the United States.

Description in Japanese

不揃いな家族 / 原タイトル:COMMONWEALTH / アン・パチェット/著 竹内要江/訳

1965年、カリフォルニア。幼いフラニーの洗礼式で彼女の母ビヴァリー・キーティングと検事アルバート・カズンズが恋に落ち、二人の母、二人の父、六人の子どもたちは一つの家族になった。血のつながりも、同じ屋根の下での生活もない。それでも夏ごとに顔を合わせる六人の子どもたちは、親への不満と苛立ちを分かち合いながら、奇妙な連帯感を育んでいった。大人になったフラニーがある作家に自らの過去を語ってしまったとき、その絆は思わぬ形で試されることになる。寄せ集められた者たちが、時間と距離を越えてゆるやかにつながり続ける―。ベストセラー作家、アン・パチェットが贈る家族という関係の枠を超えた共同体の物語。ニューヨーク・タイムズ・ベストセラー第1位、全米批評家協会賞最終候補、有力紙誌で年間ベストブック選出...アメリカで大きな話題を呼んだ注目作。
