The Things You Do For Love

An artistic genius and a philanderer, the recently deceased Henry Jones has left a legacy. His wife Flora, a highly successful surgeon who's never been sure she's given enough time to her family, must finally come to terms with her husband's many flaws. Their older daughter, Lou, is determined to become a mother herself, but just as she takes the first step, her relationship begins to crumble. And younger daughter, Kitty, is caught between two very different loves—and the need to finally step outside her father's long shadow. Rachel Crowther's beautifully observed novel is a warm and wise story of grief, art, music and some important questions: What is there to regret in life? In the end is it the professional achievements or the things we do for love which matter most?
