Review:
"HOUSEKEEPING sounds as if the author has been treasuring it up all her life, waiting for it to form itself."
Doris Lessing
Review:"An often comic novel that has become a certifiable classic. Her name is Ruth and she has the eye and ear of a poet."
Walker Percy

Book Description: MACMILLAN AUDIO, United States, 2005. CD-Audio. Book Condition: New. Unabridged. 149 x 135 mm. Brand New Book with Free Worldwide Delivery. An unabridged audio edition of this classic work on the 25th anniversary of its first publicationA modern classic, housekeeping is the story of Ruth and her younger sister, Lucille, who grow up haphazardly, first under the care of their competent grandmother, then of two comically bumbling great-aunts, and finally of Sylvie, their eccentric and remote aunt. The family house is in the small Far West town of Fingerbone set on a glacial lake, the same lake where their grandfather died in a spectacular train wreck, and their mother drove off a cliff to her death. It is a town "chastened by an outsized landscape and extravagant weather, and chastened again by an awareness that the whole of human history had occurred elsewhere." Ruth and Lucille's struggle toward adulthood beautifully illuminates the price of loss and survival, and the dangerous and deep undertow of transience.
