Résumé de "The ghost at the table"

Two markedly different sisters, Frances and Cynthia, come together for a cold and snowy Thanksgiving with their elderly, long-estranged father. During the excruciating weekend, sleeping tensions and old grievances reawaken. This poignant and funny novel explores the mystery of why families stay togther when it may be in their best interests to keep apart. From the author of "A Crime In The Neighbourhood", which won the Orange Prize in 1999.
