Description
In this darkly comedic novel, Sarah, a celebrated astronaut on the cusp of a historic mission, grapples with the chaotic reality of her family. Her relatives, a collection of deeply flawed individuals, are converging for a pre-flight banquet, each burdened by their own profound struggles, from devastating illnesses to profound psychological challenges. As they gather, the fragile facade of normalcy threatens to crumble, exposing the raw, often absurd, truths that bind them together. Coupland masterfully explores themes of family dysfunction, the search for connection in a fractured world, and the enduring, if unconventional, nature of love.
