It’s easy to find fault with how other people describe my profession–and I will admit that there were some descriptions and techniques described in the book that I would not personally have used. The main character, as you may know, is a music therapist. And there’s the recovering alcoholic, who turns to the church and struggles with his ex-wife’s newfound love and continued desire to have a child.Īs someone who has had loved ones struggle with infertility issues and who was raised by two women, I was touched by Picoult’s perspective of the issues.There’s the life-long lesbian who has spent a lifetime defending who she is.There’s the main character, who finds love with another woman and, despite infertility issues, wants nothing more than to have a child.Few issues are truly black-and-white and, with this novel, you get inside the heads of characters who’s perspectives vary greatly: The beauty of her writing style is that she approaches these subjects without judgment and from multiple perspectives. The short version of this post is that I HIGHLY recommend Sing You Home! Picoult tackles two–as one reviewer put it–“provocative” issues: infertility and gay marriage. Mighty fast for a working mom with two kids, if you ask me 🙂 On March 3rd, I downloaded the audio program through. Jodi Picoult’s latest novel, Sing You Home was officially released on March 1st. Do you ever have the feeling of being so engrossed in a book that you lose yourself in it? Of being to the point of no return, where you will let everything else fall by the wayside because all you want to do is find out how it ends?
