Readers of Alice Hoffman and Anita Shreve will love this novel...and stay up all night to finish it!" - Jonis Agee, author of The River Wife, The Weight of Dreams, and South of Resurrection “Margaret Lukas has written a page-turner of a novel. I can’t remember the last time I rooted so enthusiastically for a heroine.” - Anna Monardo, author of The Courtyard of Dreams and Falling in Love with Natassia “Haunting and eerily beautiful…Farthest House is an unsettling, unforgettable book.” Holiday Reinhorn, author of Big Cats: Stories When Willow is born and her mother dies moments later, only the narrator of this spellbinding, debut novel knows the death isn't from complications of childbirth.
