Since the publication of her astonishing debut Vanished, Mary McGarry Morris has been compared with John Steinbeck and Carson McCullers and widely praised as "one of our finest American writers" (The Miami Herald). Now Morris has achieved new heights with her riveting chronicle of the Talcotts, a family in rural Vermont during the Great Depression.

Abandoned by his beautiful wife, Henry and their two young children spend a summer in a tent on the edge of Black Pond. As he searches for work, Henry often must leave the children alone. When a prosperous neighbor intervenes, the consequences may cost the Talcotts everything. Powerfully imagined and intensely felt, The Lost Mother is a haunting masterpiece and McGarry Morris’s strongest novel to date.
