Book description
"A funny, perceptive look at what it means to defy societal expectations...timeless." --Washington Post " For] basically anyone who is breathing, Rental House is a must-read."--San Francisco Chronicle "Sharp, insightful, occasionally heartbreaking, and incredibly relatable."--Gabrielle Zevin, author of Tomorrow, and Tomorrow, and Tomorrow "For anyone who's experienced demanding parents, misunderstanding in-laws, a vacation-gone-wrong, or mid-life questions about how to reconcile your own personality liabilities with those of the person you love most."--Elif Batuman, author of The Idiot From the award-winning author of Chemistry, a sharp-witted, insightful novel about a marriage as seen through the lens of two family vacations Keru and Nate are college sweethearts who marry despite their family differences: Keru's strict, Chinese, immigrant parents demand perfection ("To use a dishwasher is to admit defeat," says her father), while Nate's rural, white, working-class family distrusts his intellectual ambitions and his "foreign" wife. Some years into their marriage, the couple invites their families on vacation. At a Cape Cod beach house, and later at a luxury Catskills bungalow, Keru, Nate, and their giant sheepdog navigate visits from in-laws and unexpected guests, all while wondering if they have what it takes to answer the big questions: How do you cope when your spouse and your family of origin clash? How many people (and dogs) make a family? And when the pack starts to disintegrate, what can you do to shepherd everyone back together? With her "wry, wise, and simply spectacular" style (People) and "hilarious deadpan that recalls Gish Jen and Nora Ephron" (O, The Oprah Magazine), Weike Wang offers a portrait of family that is equally witty, incisive, and tender.SynopsisDAKOTA JOHNSON'S TEATIME PICTURES DECEMBER BOOK CLUB PICK ONE OF NPR'S "BOOKS WE LOVE" 2024 "One of the most nuanced, astute critiques of America now I've read in years.
