Her husband, Gordon, respected in the community but a controlling presence at home, intends for her to follow a long-standing family tradition and name the baby after him. But when faced with the decision, Cora hesitates...\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSpanning thirty-five years, what follows are three alternate and alternating versions of their lives, shaped by Cora’s last-minute choice of name. In richly layered prose, The Names explores the painful ripple effects of domestic abuse, the messy ties of family, and the possibilities of autonomy and healing.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThrough a prism of what-ifs, Florence Knapp invites us to consider the \"one . . . precious life\" we are given. Full of hope, this is the story of three names, three versions of a life, and the infinite possibilities that a single decision can spark. It is the story of one family and love’s endless capacity to endure, no matter what fate has in store.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe book’s brilliantly imaginative structure, propulsive storytelling, and emotional power are certain to make The Names a modern classic.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"INGRAM","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50878359961901,"sku":null,"price":30.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0915\/2010\/6797\/files\/names.webp?v=1773929201","url":"https:\/\/tbrshelfbooks.com\/products\/names-a-read-with-jenna-pick","provider":"The TBR shelf ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
