Anywhere for You

"Greaves finds extraordinary in the ordinary, carefully pulling apart this seemingly happy marriage to reveal the guilt and desperation that lie beneath. Frank and Maggie's struggle to define themselves when life doesn't meet their expectations is full of intensity and emotion, their love for one another the only constant. With the sincerity and hope of Tayari Jones' An American Marriage (2018) and the thoughtful, circumspect snapshots of marriage in Lauren Groff's Fates and Furies (2015), Greaves' debut depicts the many joys and sorrows that make up a marriage." - Booklist on The Silent Treatment

"Abbie Greaves held me spellbound with this intimate, emotional story of the brutal power of silence and ostracism.

Keep the tissues handy for this lovely read." - Susan Wiggs, #1 New York Times bestselling author of The Oysterville Sewing Circle, on The Silent Treatment
