Alice thought she knew the shape of her family. Then she found the photograph.

 

Seventeen years earlier, Alice’s mother made a choice that quietly divided one possible life from another. Now Alice has a name, a photograph, and a question she can no longer leave unanswered. Following it leads her to Lou, the father who never knew she existed, and Carroll, the daughter who grew up inside the life Alice might have had. What begins as an impossible discovery soon carries Alice across an ocean and into an exuberant English family, an Oxford wedding, and relationships for which none of the old names seem quite sufficient.

 

Through Glass is a warm, quietly whimsical novella about fathers and daughters, sisters and strangers, friendship and blood, and the curious geography of belonging. Perhaps family isn’t always the place where we begin. Sometimes it’s what we find on the other side of the glass.
