More about Miller's Valley

In a small town on the verge of big change, a young woman unearths deep secrets about her family and unexpected truths about herself. 

For generations, the Millers have lived in Miller's Valley. As Mimi eavesdrops on her parents and observes the people around her, she discovers more and more about the toxicity of family secrets, the dangers of gossip, the flaws of marriage, the inequalities of friendship, and the risks of passion, loyalty, and love.

Miller's Valley is a masterful study of family, memory, loss, and, ultimately the discovery of finding one's true identity and a new vision of home.  

"Vintage Quindlen, a compelling family tale, rich in recognizable characters, resplendent storytelling, and reflective observations.  It is also an affectionate and appreciative portrait of a disappearing way of life."  -Booklist
