All in Mother

The beautiful Zelda was only twenty-four years old when her cruel husband forcibly sent her to a psychiatric hospital. And she never saw her children again.
Three decades later, Zelda's daughter, Lila, gathering all that she has – brains, charm, talent, sweet looks – rises to the top of American media as a brilliant editor-in-chief. She unconditionally prioritizes her career, leaving little time for her own family.
And Lila's now-adult daughter, Grace, cannot shake the feeling of loneliness and resentment towards her mother. Becoming a successful reporter, Grace still finds herself in Lila’s shadow, about whom she is planning to write a book. But Grace realizes that she knows terrifyingly little about her relatives. How can one even be oneself, she wonders, if no one has told you where your roots are?
After all, sometimes we aren’t even aware of how family secrets change our lives, even if we are unaware of them.
"All in Mother" is the story of a family. Here everything is tangled up: a failed marriage, ambitions, a thirst for power and lies, endless lies behind which hides an ugly truth.
