Marine life

In these fluidly interwoven stories, Linda Svendsen charts with tenderness and devastating accuracy the longings, pleasures, and terrors of belonging to a family. Through the watchful and sometimes astonished eyes of Adele Nordstrom, we view the members of her chaotic, working-class home in Vancouver: her womanizing brother, Ray; her self-destructive sister, Joyce; and her mother, June, a cocktail pianist who believes that a bad marriage is better than no marriage at all.
