Stories of true emotional depth rarely cross her desk. But when a young writer named Tupper Daniels walks in, bearing an unfinished novel, Elizabeth is drawn to both the novelist and his story--a lyrical tale about a man in love with more than one woman at once. Tupper's manuscript unlocks memories of her own secretive father, who himself may have been a bigamist. As Elizabeth and Tupper search for the perfect dénouement, their affair, too, approaches a most unexpected and poignant coda. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eA brilliant debut from one of our most celebrated authors, \u003ci\u003e A Bigamist's Daughter \u003c\/i\u003eis \"a wise, sad, witty novel about men and women, God, hope, love, illusion, and fiction itself\" (\u003ci\u003eNewsweek\u003c\/i\u003e).\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/sureshotbooks-com.myshopify.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=AUTH-11906287\"\u003eAlice McDermott\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Picador Paper\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 02\/07\/2023\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 304\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.53lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 10.80h x 7.00w x 1.20d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781250852281\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1250852285\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBISAC Categories:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e- \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/sureshotbooks-com.myshopify.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=CAT-FIC\"\u003eFiction\u003c\/a\u003e | \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/sureshotbooks-com.myshopify.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=BISAC-FIC019000\"\u003eLiterary\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003e- \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/sureshotbooks-com.myshopify.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=CAT-FIC\"\u003eFiction\u003c\/a\u003e | \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/sureshotbooks-com.myshopify.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=BISAC-FIC084030\"\u003eWorld Literature | American | 20th Century\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAlice McDermott\u003c\/b\u003e is the author of several novels, including \u003ci\u003eThe Ninth Hour\u003c\/i\u003e;\u003ci\u003e Someone\u003c\/i\u003e;\u003ci\u003e After This\u003c\/i\u003e;\u003ci\u003e Charming Billy\u003c\/i\u003e, winner of the 1998 National Book Award; \u003ci\u003eAt Weddings and Wakes\u003c\/i\u003e; and \u003ci\u003eThat Night\u003c\/i\u003e--all published by FSG. \u003ci\u003eThat Night, At Weddings and Wakes\u003c\/i\u003e, and \u003ci\u003eAfter This\u003c\/i\u003e were finalists for the Pulitzer Prize.
