INSTANT NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER "Sandwich is joy in book form. I laughed continuously, except for the parts that made me cry."--Ann Patchett "If you like my novels, you will love love love this . . . I stand in awe, it's just perfect."--Elin Hilderbrand "A total delight."--Kate Christensen From the beloved author of We All Want Impossible Things comes a moving, hilarious story of a family summer vacation filled with secrets, lunch, and learning to let go. For two decades, Rocky has eagerly anticipated her family's yearly escape to Cape Cod, where their humble rental has hosted sweet memories, sunny days, and various messes—emotional, marital, and plumbing-related. This year's vacation, with Rocky caught between her half-grown kids and aging parents, promises to be delightful, despite her hormonal mood swings (hello, menopause!). As her body and life change, a series of events sends Rocky into the past, revisiting the tenderness and sorrow of long-ago summers. In this precious week, everything feels both balanced and in flux. Confronted with her family's history and future, Rocky must accept that she can no longer hide her secrets from those she loves.
