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... \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\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, \u003ci\u003eThe Names\u003c\/i\u003e explores the painful ripple effects of domestic abuse, the messy ties of family, and the possibilities of autonomy and healing. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\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. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eThe book's brilliantly imaginative structure, propulsive storytelling, and emotional power are certain to make \u003ci\u003eThe Names\u003c\/i\u003e a modern classic.\u003c\/body\u003e","brand":"Pamela Dorman Books","offers":[{"title":"Names: A Read with Jenna Pick | Florence Knapp | Hardcover | 9780593833902 | Used: Like New | Back Stacks G 1766571","offer_id":49376815743128,"sku":"1766571","price":13.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0492\/1609\/4360\/files\/815aF373reL.jpg?v=1783019775","url":"https:\/\/roundaboutbookstore.com\/products\/names-a-read-with-jenna-pick","provider":"Roundabout Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
