"Flesh and Blood" is one of the best novels by American author Michael Cunningham, author of the bestsellers "The Hours" and "A Home at the End of the World." "Flesh and Blood" is a family saga, a story spanning an entire century: it begins in 1935 and ends in 2035. The first generation—Greek Constantine and his Italian wife, Mary—struggles to establish themselves in American society and rise to the middle class. Their children—the beautiful Susan, the talented Billy, and the wild Zoe—fly the nest and choose different paths in life. They struggle to find themselves, chase the deceptive phantoms of multifaceted love, and commit desperate acts that could ruin their destinies. The reader follows the unfolding events with captivating interest, understanding how fragile and vulnerable humans are in this world. The theme of fathers and sons will be eternal, no matter when the novel is set. Michael Cunningham's book unfolds over 100 years. It is the story of an entire generation. Parents do everything they can to feel solid ground beneath their feet and be confident in the future, while children overthrow all boundaries and rules, ready to fly headlong into the unknown, toward a shaky dream. Who will ultimately be happier?
