SUMMARY:Rachel Joyce: The Homemade God
DESCRIPTION:We are delighted to support this event organised by Penguin Random House and GAIL’s Bakeries \nFull details and tickets available from Eventbrite \nStep into the cosy charm of GAIL’s Bakery for an inspiring afternoon with bestselling author Rachel Joyce\, as part of our Great Reads Collection in association with Heron Books . Rachel will share the story behind her latest novel\, The Homemade God\, offering candid insights into her creative process\, the joys and challenges of writing\, and the imaginative world she brings to life. \nEvery guest will receive: \n\nA hardback copy of The Homemade God\, personally signed by Rachel\nAn exclusive tote bag\nA hot drink of your choice\nA freshly baked bun to enjoy during the event\n\nAbout the book\, The Homemade God \nThere is a heatwave across Europe. \nGoose and his three sisters gather at the family’s house by Lake Orta in Piedmont\, Italy. Their father\, a famous artist\, has recently remarried a much younger woman and decamped to Italy to finish his masterpiece. Now he is dead and there is no sign of a painting. \nAlthough the siblings have always been close\, as they search for answers over that summer\, the things they learn – about themselves\, their father and their new stepmother – will drive them apart before they can come to any kind of understanding of what their father’s legacy truly is. Extraordinarily compelling\, at heart this is a novel about sibling relationships and those hairline cracks that can appear within a family: what what happens when they splinter\, and what it would take to mend them.
