must-read
for

time
Thenew Little Fires Everywhere. . . Exploringmental health, grief, forgiveness and love, this conjures up the work ofCeleste Ng and Anne Tyler- and we can't give higher praise than that. Theperfect summer read
Immersive and deeply moving
A wonderful novel about a lifetime of love. . . Focusing on a small cast over several decades allows Keane to exploreuniversal themes: marriage, family, betrayal and forgiveness.Above all, what is a good life well lived?
One of the most exceptional novels of the summer . . .Hasthe makings of a future classic.Keane's prose isspare and elegantand she writes about mental illness and alcholism with compassion. It'sa remarkable achievement
I adored this book.I sank completely into the world of this novel and loved being there from beginning to end.Ask Again, Yesreminds us that after happily-ever-after comes the grit and grief of everyday love: in-laws, illnesses, betrayals and, scariest of all, the flaws that each partner will uncover in the other.It's an absolute stunner, an ode to family and forgiveness that has been crafted with compassion and insight
Compelling. . . it is neighbourly conflict, not love, that drives thisquietly devastatingstory . . . There aremultiple twists skilfully delivered. The novelraises a series of profound questions. . . [and] as an exploration of parent-child relationships, the novel isboth thoughtful and powerful
This is one beautiful book. I was wowed by Keane's writing and narrative skill - and by what she knows about trouble
I absolutely adored Ask Again, Yes. I was only a few chapters in when I knew Mary Beth Keane was about to become one of my favourite authors.I'll read everything she writes
A pleasantly accessible novel that will be popular with book clubs ... Keane is a nuanced observer
A novel ofgreat compassion and understanding. . .rich with story
Powerful and moving. . . Mary Beth Keane is a writer of extraordinary depth, feeling and wit.Readers will love this book, as I did
One of the most exceptional novels of the summer. . . Hasthe makings of a future classic
Leaves one shaking one's head in frank admiration.A triumph
Keane takes on one of the most difficult problems in fiction - how to write about human decency. . . a compelling case for compassion over blame, understanding over grudge, and the resilience of hearts that can accept the contradictions of love
A shocking tragedy turns what had been a portrait of domestic tension into a profound story of trauma and blame. Keane'sgracefully restrained prose gives her characters dignity
Abeautiful novel,bursting at the seams with empathy
A powerful tale
A captivating, authentic and intricately-woven story . . . Immensely affecting, this book poses big questions. Can we ever escape our history? Are we prisoners of our bloodlines? Ultimately, this book is an examination of love - familial and romantic. It is an epic story, quietly told. And it is all the better for that
A story withreal heart - moving and subtle and often very touching
Iftense family dramasare your thing, you'll love this. I found this storyhugely engrossingandthe characters so well-drawn,I became completely invested in their lives
A candidate for one of my best books of the year.I savoured every word of thiseloquent, lyrical novel, which explores how the secrets that families carry can effect future generations . . .I was swept up in the drama
An explosive study of family dynamics. . .moving and thought-provoking. . .a gripping family sagathat tackles mental illness and addiction and explores how childhood can inescapably shape the future

Keane draws two families insharp, moving detail, effortlessly peeling back decades of historyto look at friendship, mental health, and the changing and sometimes warped face of love
A rare example ofpropulsive storytellinginfused withprofound insights about blame, forgiveness and abiding love
Displayingimpressive reach. . . Keane deliversan epic of domestic emotional turmoil. . .Tender and patient, the novel avoids excessive sweetness while planting itself deep in the soil of commitment and attachment.Graceful and mature. Asolidly satisfying, immersive read
Animmersive readabout family secrets and redemption
Agut-wrenching talecentered around the families of two rookie, next-door neighbor NYPD cops and a tragedy that reverberates over four decades. The book revolves aroundthe bond between their children, the daily intimacies of marriage and the power of forgiveness
One of the mostunpretentiously profoundbooks I've read in a long time . . . As a writer, Keanereminds me a lot of Ann Pratchett;Both have themagical abilityto seem to be telling "only" a closely-observed domestic tale that transforms into something else deep and, yes, universal. In Keane's case, that "something else" is a story about forgiveness and acceptance - qualities that sound gooey, but are so hard to achieve in life . . .Modestly magnificent
AnUpdikean epicof intertwined families destabilized by grief and estrangement following a mother's breakdown, then redeemed by their enduring compassion for one another

A powerful taleof two neighbouring families forever entwined by love and tragedy. . .A touching read
Mary Beth Keane draws two families insharp, moving detail. . . With hints of Curtis Sittenfeld about it - the wayit effortlessly unspools years, but buffets you with a huge amount of detail -it considers friendship and mental ill health, how love changes and warps, and despite a fairly slow start,does so beautifully
Poignant and powerful
A miniature epic. . .like Elizabeth Strout, Keane is good at creating distinctive characters- flawed, empathetic men and women whose inner landscapes she captures inpowerful, pared-down prose.The novel isa nuanced portraitof the impact of mental illness and addiction, the limitations and endurance of love and of how 'we repeat what we don't repair'
Athought-provoking readexploring mental illness, alcoholism and violence
Fans of Celeste Ng will love thismodern American novel based on two families linked by tragedy and passion . . . A lovely mix of childhood memories growing in to adulthood, andits really powerful
