Sons and daughters of ease and plenty / Ramona Ausubel. by Ausubel, Ramona, author. New York : Riverhead Books, 2016. Subjects Upper class families -- New England -- Fiction.   Children of the rich -- Fiction.   Social status -- Fiction. ISBN:  9781594634888 1594634882 Description:  308 pages ; 24 cm Requests:  1 Summary:  "From the award-winning author of No One Is Here Except All of Us, an imaginative novel about a wealthy New England family in the 1960s and '70s that suddenly loses its fortune--and its bearings. Labor Day, 1976, Martha's Vineyard. Summering at the family beach house along this moneyed coast of New England, Fern and Edgar--married with three children--are happily preparing for a family birthday celebration when they learn that the unimaginable has occurred: There is no more money. More specifically, there's no more money in the estate of Fern's recently deceased parents, which, as the sole source of Fern and Edgar's income, had allowed them to live this beautiful, comfortable life despite their professed anti-money ideals. Quickly, the once-charmed family unravels. In distress and confusion, Fern and Edgar are each tempted away on separate adventures: she on a road trip with a stranger, he on an ill-advised sailing voyage with another woman. The three children are left for days with no guardian whatsoever, in an improvised Neverland helmed by the tender, witty, and resourceful Cricket, age nine. Brimming with humanity and wisdom, humor and bite, and imbued with both the whimsical and the profound, Sons and Daughters of Ease and Plenty is a story of American wealth, class, family, and mobility, approached by award-winner Ramona Ausubel with a breadth of imagination and understanding that is fresh, surprising, and exciting"--   Copy/Holding information Location Collection Call No. Status   Kaimuki Public Library Adult Fiction Ausubel Item being held Add Copy to MyList Lihue Public Library Adult Fiction Ausubel Checked In Add Copy to MyList Manoa Public Library Adult Fiction Ausubel Checked In Add Copy to MyList Waialua Public Library Adult Fiction Ausubel Checked In Add Copy to MyList Waikiki-Kapahulu Public Library Adult Fiction Ausubel Checked In Add Copy to MyList
