The Book That Matters Most: A Novel

An enthralling novel about love, loss, secrets, friendship, and the healing power of literature, by the bestselling author of The Knitting Circle.

Avaâ€™s twenty-five-year marriage has fallen apart, and her two grown children are pursuing their own lives outside of the country. Ava joins a book group, not only for her love of reading but also out of sheer desperation for companionship. The groupâ€™s goal throughout the year is for each member to present the book that matters most to them. Ava rediscovers a mysterious book from her childhoodâ€”one that helped her through the traumas of the untimely deaths of her sister and mother. Alternating with Avaâ€™s story is that of her troubled daughter Maggie, who, living in Paris, descends into a destructive relationship with an older man. Avaâ€™s mission to find that book and its enigmatic author takes her on a quest that unravels the secrets of her past and offers her and Maggie the chance to remake their lives.
