The Good Family

MacKinlay Kantor

0/5 ( ratings)

The Good family is an affirmation, an affirmation of the author's belief in living, in facing life without caution or fear of the future. It is the story of Martha Barden, her husband, Larry, whom she loved with all her heart, and of the twins, lovely hostages to fortune, who might not have been, but were, thanks to Martha's sound instinct. The tale begins in the ante-room of a shady doctor's office, a place of suspicion and fear, where Martha has crept in panic and revulsion. It ends in a comfortable unpretentious house in Virginia with years of living between and the twins grown up. The Good Family is a story which will have its special meaning for every reader, but essentially it is a challenge, a call for courage.
