AbstractHistoryArchive Description

'"My friend Sophie was small and merry: all the lines on her face ran upward. She had the wholesomeness of warm fresh bread, and even the most unexpected people became hungry for her."

'Why would a woman so loving and beloved choose to die? After Sophie Martin's death those who loved her are left with their guilt and a need for answers. Knowing Sophie draws us into the lives of Sophie's husband David, her friends Nin, Kate and Caroline, her mother-in-law Nell, and her twin sons, Ben and Tom. Relationships shift and values alter now that the Sophie they thought they knew is gone. Brenda Little has crafted an exquisite novel that is at times achingly sad, often funny but always emotionally engaging.'
