Whistler

Ann Patchett

At the Metropolitan Museum of Art, fifty-three-year-old English teacher Daphne Fuller reunites with Eddie Triplett — the stepfather who vanished from her life when she was nine. What follows is a luminous novel about memory, chosen family, the stories that keep us alive, and the love that can survive decades of misunderstanding.

“It’s a story about how love endures, and how the feeling of being known by one other person, even for a short period of time, can change everything.”
