Good Things I Wish You

“A lyrical, haunting exploration of loves past and present. Witty, sprightly, surprising, this deeply original and utterly captivating new novel … beguiles the senses and dazzles the heart. A beautiful book.” —Diana Abu-Jaber “As the parallels between the two relationships multiply, the novel catches fire. . . . Ansay is a gifted and sure-handed storyteller.” — *Milwaukee Journal Sentinel* From the critically acclaimed *New York Times* bestselling author of *Vinegar Hill* and *Midnight Champagne* comes a beautifully written story of two summer romances—one of a brilliant pianist, one of a struggling novelist—separated in time by nearly two centuries. If you enjoy the novels of Ann Patchett ( *Bel Canto* ), Claire Messud ( *The Emperor’s Children* ), and Lionel Shriver ( *We Need to Talk About Kevin* ), you’ll find much to love in A. Manette Ansay’s stunningly original *Good Things I Wish You*.
