THE ALTERNATIVES - CAOILINN HUGHES KARTONIERT (TB)

The four Flattery sisters - Olwen  Nell  Maeve and Rhona - were left to cobble together their
own makeshift adolescence after the death of both their parents. Decades later  all four of
them have found success in their respective fields  all of them boasting PhDs and  in Nell's
case  a healthy clutch of Instagram followers. Still  none of the sisters have come to terms
with their parents' deaths  choosing to focus instead on bigger problems - food insecurity 
climate change  post-Brexit capitalism - to avoid confronting this trauma. When Olwen
disappears  Nell  Maeve and Rhona attempt to find the sister they no longer know  a woman who
wants desperately not to be found. Their search will force the siblings to bridge the isolation
that has grown between them  and face the past they thought they could bury. Full of laugh-out
loud wit and clear-eyed observations  The Alternatives is a story of sisterhood and belonging 
of loss and connection  written with Caoilinn Hughes' trademark intelligence and razor-sharp
prose.
