Reviews
"The Dutch House has the richness, allusiveness, and emotional heft of the best fiction." -- Boston Globe "As always, the author draws us close to her portagonists swiftly and gracefully." -- Wall Street Journal "Patchett's prose is confident, unfussy and unadorned." -- New York Times "Patchett's splendid novel is a thoughtful, compassionate exploration of obsession and forgiveness, what people acquire, keep, lose or give away, and what they leave behind." -- Publishers Weekly (starred review) "...this richly furnished novel gives brilliantly clear views into the lives it contains." -- Kirkus Reviews (starred review) "You won't want to put down this engrossing, warmhearted book even after you've read the last page." -- NPR "Ann Patchett spins a dark, compelling fairy tale in The Dutch House." -- Entertainment Weekly "A big-hearted, capacious novel..." -- Chapter 16 "The Dutch House is unusual, thoughtful and oddly exciting, as well-told domestic dramas can be." -- Columbus Dispatch "Patchett's storytelling abilities shine in this gratifying novel." -- Associated Press "Expect miracles when you read Ann Patchett's fiction." -- New York Times Book Review "Patchett is a master storyteller." -- O, the Oprah Magazine "A lavisly gifted writer." -- Los Angeles Times "Patchett writes enviable prose--fluid, simple, direct, clear, and fearless." -- Esquire "Enchanting." -- PEOPLE Magazine, Best Books of Fall 2019 "Patchett is at her subtle yet shining finest in this gloriously incisive, often droll, quietly suspenseful drama of family, ambition, and home. . . . With echoes of F. Scott Fitzgerald and in sync with Alice McDermott, Patchett gracefully choreographs surprising revelations and reunions as her characters struggle with the need to be one's true self." -- Booklist "As always, Patchett leads us to a truth that feels like life rather than literature." -- The Guardian "For Patchett fans who have been waiting for years, it's a worthwhile read." -- Evening Standard (London) "The Dutch House confirms what we've always known: Ann Patchett doesn't write a bad book." -- BookPage "This finely textured novel is made up of many such small, intimate moments, yet the effect is sweeping, grand, and lavish--and all deeply moving." -- New York Journal of Books "This is a serious and poignant story, but also a delightfully funny one." -- Washington Independent Review of Books "The Dutch House is beautifully written and often tender." -- The Spectator "A great novelist is on top form with this tale of lost family home." -- The Times (London) "Subtle mystery, psychological page-turner, Patchett's latest is a thriller." -- Washington Post

Synopsis
Audiobook performed by Tom Hanks. A Read with Jenna Today Show Book Club Pick! From the New York Times bestselling author of Commonwealth and State of Wonder, comes Ann Patchett's most powerful novel to date: a richly moving story that explores the indelible bond between two siblings, the house of their childhood, and a past that will not let them go. The Dutch House is the story of a paradise lost, a tour de force that digs deeply into questions of inheritance, love and forgiveness, of how we want to see ourselves and of who we really are. At the end of the Second World War, Cyril Conroy combines luck and a single canny investment to begin an enormous real estate empire, propelling his family from poverty to enormous wealth. His first order of business is to buy the Dutch House, a lavish estate in the suburbs outside of Philadelphia. Meant as a surprise for his wife, the house sets in motion the undoing of everyone he loves. The story is told by Cyril's son Danny, as he and his older sister, the brilliantly acerbic and self-assured Maeve, are exiled from the house where they grew up by their stepmother. The two wealthy siblings are thrown back into the poverty their parents had escaped from and find that all they have to count on is one another. It is this unshakeable bond between them that both saves their lives and thwarts their futures. Set over the course of five decades, The Dutch House is a dark fairy tale about two smart people who cannot overcome their past. Despite every outward sign of success, Danny and Maeve are only truly comfortable when they're together. Throughout their lives they return to the well-worn story of what they've lost with humor and rage. But when at last they're forced to confront the people who left them behind, the relationship between an indulged brother and his ever-protective sister is finally tested.

- r***g (242)- Feedback lasciato dall'acquirente.Mese scorsoAcquisto verificatoBook was "nearly new" and "as described" in listing. The advertised price was fair and a good value. Unfortunately, the seller's shipping partner was very slow to get the book packaged and shipped. Shipping took too long, and the tracking info gave no reliable info on shipping date, time in transit or expected delivery. Seller did everything right, but their shipping partner needs improvement. I recommend this seller to other eBay buyers....... just make sure you're okay with the shipping terms.
- e***u (283)- Feedback lasciato dall'acquirente.Mese scorsoAcquisto verificatoThe listing was for a hardcover version of this book; however, I received a paperback. The Seller replied quickly to my question about this issue and issued a full refund - and let me keep the book. So, a diligent Seller for sure - and well packaged and reasonable timing on shipping. Thank you for the refund, and as you suggested, I'll likely donate this volume and seek the hardcover.
- e***n (392)- Feedback lasciato dall'acquirente.Ultimi 6 mesiAcquisto verificatoGreat transaction, exactly as described, packed well, and promptly shipped on August 6th. Unfortunately the U.S. Postal Service took 23 calendar days to deliver the book. It was shipped from Pennsylvania, to Atlanta, past Alabama to Texas, enjoyed several days in Texas, then to Minneapolis, Jacksonville, Florida, back to Atlanta, finally to Birmingham, and Huntsville. The seller was very responsive and I decided it was interesting to see if/how the book would arrive.
