Synopsis

A National Book Foundation 5 under 35 Author

In less than a year, Henrietta lost her husband and most of her money, her divorcing daughter has moved home to the house she needs to sell, and she's about to lose her hard-won anonymity: The Inseparables, her scandalous and critically despised decades-old bestseller, is about to be reissued. And things only get worse.

Review

"It's an absorbing, well-crafted book, with all the story-telling virtues on display. It is atmospheric, thoughtful and mature, with characters whose fate arouses genuine curiosity. It is fiction of great integrity and vast promise." "Hilary Mantel""

"It's a testament to Stuart Nadler's powers of empathy that I identified with all three generations of women in this witty and wise tale of female trouble and family mayhem." Lucinda Rosenfeld, "author of "I'm So Happy for You" and "The Pretty One"""

"THE INSEPARABLES accomplishes the rare feat of being both timely--this is an incisive commentary on our culture in the digital age--and completely timeless. Stuart Nadler is sharply attuned to the ironies of life and his novel is insightful, funny, and deeply moving. THE INSEPARABLES is a profound story, not just about the Olyphant women, but about America. This is proof that Nadler is one of the great novelists of our generation." Elliott Holt, "author of "You Are One of Them """

PRAISE FOR THE INSEPARABLES:

"THE INSEPARABLES reminded me of vintage Michael Chabon in all the right ways: keenly observed, raucously funny, and poignantly painful. The masterful prose sparkles and shines. But what makes THE INSEPARABLES so damn good are the perfectly realized characters, all popping off the page in 3-D. A great, great book."
Nickolas Butler, "internationally bestselling author of "Shotgun Lovesongs "and "Beneath the Bonfire"""

"THE INSEPARABLES is a mature, sophisticated, self-assured, deeply entertaining piece of fiction. As I read it I couldn't stop saying to myself: now "this" is exactly how a book should work." Jami Attenberg, "New York Times bestselling author of "The Middlesteins" and "Saint Mazie"""

PRAISE FOR WISE MEN:
"I have no doubt that Stuart Nadler is going to be one of our great novelists, and it all starts here, on a dune in Cape Cod, with the Wise men. These characters--knotted together with obligation, guilt, and love--will stay with me always." "Emma Straub""

"Surprising...The story stretches over both Wise men's lifetimes and fills them with resonant complications...expertly wrought." "Janet Maslin%2C New York Times""

"A tense, evocative, page-turning saga of the bruising encounters between two families across the 'colour line' over half a century. Every conversation rings painfully, beautifully true." "Emma Donoghue%2C author of Frog Music and Room""

"At turns funny, thoughtful, and heart wrenching, THE INSEPARABLES is a deeply satisfying sage of mothers and daughters, sure to be a hit with book clubs. Stuart Nadler writes with clear-eyed confidence, keen insight, and great empathy for his characters."
Jonathan Evison, "author of "The Revised Fundamentals of Caregiving "and "West of Here"
