Within Arm's Reach

"Within Arm's Reach follows three generations of an Irish-American Catholic family who are jarred into crisis by an unexpected pregnancy. This novel is told through six different points of view, including those of the unmarried, pregnant Gracie, a local advice columnist; and her grandmother, the matriarch, who is struggling with her commitments to both the living and the dead. Within Arm's Reach is a reminder of how interconnected our lives are with those we love, how much more we inherit than wills decree, and how the ghosts of our ancestors walk by our sides every day." "Ann Napolitano paints a portrait of a family in crisis, depicting how the ties that bind us so closely to one another are often the ones that cause us the most pain. As the McLaughlins respond to the unplanned and profound change in Gracie's life, their own memories and personal stories begin to emerge." "Within Arm's Reach is a narrative of guilt, love, betrayal, and the ultimate loyalty - that of blood."--BOOK JACKET.
