Joshua Henkin has brought you into a family with love, lost, just every emotion. This is a fantastic book. While reading this you feel so close understanding of all of the family.

Really good book about a family that loses a loved one and how one of them handles it. They all come back together a year after the death for a memorial service and each one has a different take on all of it.

“I’m always saying a mother never loses her peach pit instinct. Even with a grown son, you have to stop yourself from sticking out your hand when your child finishes a piece of fruit.”

“If fast-paced entertainment is not among the pleasures generally offered by the literary novel,
other pleasure often abound: a richness of language, a heart-breaking depiction of difficult emotions, and an exploration of interesting ideas.”

Thanks for sending me your book and for allowing me to sponsor an international giveaway. I appreciate it.
Hi, Joshua. Actually, I am in a Book Group, and we are discussing your book tonight 7:30-9:00 Eastern time. How would we do this?
Thank you for the book club offer! I am in a book club (though tend to do most reading separately from book club). We've never welcomed an author by phone or in person to book club, so that would be very cool. So, I will remember the offer. Thanks again. I really liked Matrimony, and look forward to your next book--I saw some discussion of it on Jewcy--and to reading your previous novel as well.-Nicole
Hi There,I do not belong to a book club, I just love to read! I enjoyed reading Matrimony and thought it was a very unique and interesting take on the turbulance that marriage can bring.
Best,
Leslie
Look forward to reading your new book!
