Description

In Gatestown, Texas, twenty-nine-year-old Karen awaits her execution on Death Row. In New York, Franny, a doctor the same age, plans her wedding and tries to resist the urge to run. In Austin, Celia, a beautiful young librarian, mourns her lost husband. Over the course of one summer, the three women''s disparate lives intertwine. Karen, Franny and Celia all struggle to find their place in a world where nothing is sure, as they move towards one night that will change them all forever. A heart-stopping page-turner about love and forgiveness, Sleep Toward Heaven is unforgettable. Praise for Sleep Toward Heaven''Ward''s no-nonsense, unflinching prose and her complex but never confounding structure make this novel very tough to put down. But her greater triumph is her ability to humanize all these characters.''Pam Houston, "O" The Oprah Magazine''It''s funny and sad and redemptive. Read it now. Thank me later.''Jennifer Weiner, the New York Times bestselling author of Good in Bed and In Her Shoes''Women''s Death Row as you have never seen it; hauntingly rich, wise and sharply etched.'' James Ellroy''How do we forgive the unforgivable? First-time novelist Ward explores this question with a delicate blend of compassion, humour and realism-Her spare but psychologically rich portraits are utterly convincing.'' Publishers Weekly
