Marilyn French movingly depicts two young women growing apart in a dysfunctional alcoholic family. With sharp humor,
Joy Fielding plays out the consequences for half-sisters reunited on a TV talk show.

Olivia Goldsmith unfolds a dark memoir of sisterhood gone terrifyingly awry.
Cristina Garcia relates a poignant reunion of sisters separated for thirty years, one trapped in Cuba, the other escaped to Miami. And in a splendid retelling of a classic fairy tale,
Rita Dove imagines Beauty’s forgotten sisters, while her wild romance with the Beast takes flight.
Along with eleven other unique perspectives on a very special bond, Forever Sisters speaks to the part of every woman that only a sister can understand.
