Other Peoples Children: A Novel
by By Trollope, Joanna
Category: Fiction , Sagas

Joanna Trollope delves into the dynamics of stepfamily life and  introduces us to two couples whose relationships are complicated by the  enriching-and sometimes enraging-presence of others. From the grown  daughter who insinuates herself into her widowed father's romantic  life, to the sullen teenager whose loyalties lie with her estranged  mother; from the awkwardness of tense celebrations to the discovery of  surprising sources of strength, this novel is "a bittersweet tale of  the painfully divided affection created whenever a stepfamily is  formed."
