The Weird Sisters -- Eleanor Brown

<b>The beloved <i>New York Times </i>bestseller from acclaimed author Eleanor Brown about three sisters who love each other, but just don't happen to like each other very much. <p/></b>Three sisters have returned to their childhood home, reuniting the eccentric Andreas family. Here, books are a passion (<i>there is no problem a library card can't solve</i>) and TV is something other people watch. Their father--a professor of Shakespeare who speaks almost exclusively in verse--named them after the Bard's heroines. It's a lot to live up to. <p/>The sisters each have a hard time communicating with their parents and their lovers, but especially with one another. What can the shy homebody eldest sister, the fast-living middle child, and the bohemian youngest sibling have in common? Only that none has found life to be what was expected; and now, faced with their parents' frailty and their own personal disappointments, not even a book can solve what ails them...<br><br><b>Author:</b> Eleanor Brown<br><b>Publisher:</b> G.P.
