In this retelling of Jane Austen’s Persuasion, readers meet the Adair family:
• William, the immensely proud patriarch,
• Margaux, the absent mother,
• Elizabeth, the newly divorced eldest daughter,
• Diana, the middle daughter plagued by failure, and
• Isabelle, the youngest and moodiest daughter.
When William suffers a stroke and also faces the destruction of his family’s beloved (and historic) carriage house, the Adair sisters are forced to reconsider the importance of family. Each sister must face her own demons and find the strength to help her parents in their time of need.
Sometimes depressing and sometimes hilarious, The Carriage House is an interesting twist on Austen’s most relatable novel. Worth reading!
