Kate Long

    January 1, 1964

    This author crafts bittersweet novels exploring family drama and personal crises, with a particular focus on mother-daughter relationships. Her work delves into questions about what makes a parent good or bad, how family history shapes the present, and how to navigate life's circumstances. While her characters may come from seemingly ordinary backgrounds, she uncovers profound tales of risk, loss, survival, and triumph within domestic settings. Recurring themes include adoption, fertility, mental health, sexuality, disability, infidelity, and the revelation of family secrets, often set against specific regional backdrops.
