Parents and children
It's always a balancing act.
Susie Moran is a success. She founded and runs her own pottery company, and now her three daughters are all involved in what has become a highly profitable family business. Susie is justly proud of her family and her achievement - and has no intention of letting things change.
But nothing can stay the same for ever. Susie's daughters find themselves increasingly at odds with their wonderful, creative, determined mother. And when Susie's estranged father arrives to build bridges with a family he has never known, their lives are turned upside-down.
Everything is changing and Susie's world will never be the same again. In wanting to preserve her business, will she lose something much more precious?
"Trollope writes about family relationships with intelligence and clear-eyed sympathy, and the outcomes of this terrific novel are always believable as they are surprising. To be relished." (The Times)
"Trollope is an extremely assured writer, with a brilliant eye for detail and a finely tuned emotional intelligence ... she writes absorbing, wise stories that dramatise the dilemmas we face. In Balancing Act, she has done it again." (Sunday Times)
"Joanna Trollope, whose evocations of human relationships are as ever penetrating and engaging." (Daily Express)
"With her compassion for her characters, Trollope cuts to the quick of family life, and the difference between men and women. I loved it." (Fanny Blake Woman & Home, Jan 14)
"Nobody writes about family tensions better than Joanna Trollope." (Good Housekeeping)
