Title: At Weddings and Wakes Author McDermott, Alice Format/Binding Hardcover Book Condition Used - Good Quantity Available 1 Binding Hardcover ISBN 10 0374106746 ISBN 13 9780374106744 Publisher Farrar Straus & Giroux (t) Place of Publication New York This edition first published 1992 At Weddings and Wakes tells the bittersweet, lovable, all-too-human story of an Irish-Catholic family on Long Island through the eyes of its youngest members, two sisters and a brother. On their weekly visits with their mother to her familys apartment in Brooklyn, the children are ushered into an airless world of memory, recrimination, and eternal repartee. Here, in the daily routines of their grandmother and aunts, they are witnesses to the ebb and flow of drama and melodrama, the cycles of dissatisfaction, bitterness, and recurring affection which make up life for Momma, the professionally stoic matriarch who raised her sisters four girls single-handedly; for Aunt Agnes, a career woman who wraps herself in sophistication as protection against the world outside; for shy and wounded Aunt Veronica, in her forties, yet still a child: and for Aunt May, an ex-nun whose unexpected romance infused the household with the fresh air of anticipation., Farrar Straus & Giroux, 1992, 5<
