A Theory of Relativity
Author(s): Jacquelyn Mitchard

“[An] astonishing pleasure.”

—Seattle Times

 

“A graceful, moving, and compelling novel. Jacquelyn Mitchard at her finest.”

—Scott Turow, author of Innocent

 

A poignant and unforgettable novel from Jacquelyn Mitchard, author of the monumental New York Times bestsellers The Deep End of the Ocean and The Most Wanted, A Theory of Relativity is a powerful tale that explores the emotional dynamics and dramas of two families fighting for custody of a young child. The very first author selected by the Oprah Book Club, Mitchard is a matchless, wise, and warm chronicler of families and their human foibles—and A Theory of Relativity is contemporary women’s fiction at its best, a must-read for fans of Sue Miller, Jane Hamilton, and Elizabeth Berg.

Review(s):
"Mitchard . . . brings literary finesse, wisdom, and deep emotion to this believable and remarkably involving tale."
“Few are her equal in illuminating the personal stake we all have in the daily business of living.”
“Deft . . . complex . . . a powerful tale of a shattering custody battle.”
