Silk Hope, NC Paperback - 1995
by Lawrence Naumoff
Eloquent, compassionate, and humorous, this is the story of the resilient bond between two sisters who must decide what to do with the house left them by their recently deceased mother. A buoyant and moving parable in which two good women find, among the hidden, forgotten virtues of the past, a sustenance to carry them into the future.
Summary
“Compassionate understanding and humor illuminate this understated yet dazzling work” (Publishers Weekly)-a compelling parable in which two sisters find, among the neglected virtues of the past, a sustenance to carry them into the future. “A fine, unnerving little hermeneutic of love” (Village Voice).
First line
FRANNIE RAN THROUGH a flock of pigeons.

Harcourt, Brace and Company. Very Good+. 1994. Paperback. 0156002078 . 16 oz.; 352 pages; VG+ PB Unread light cover scuffing/bumping o/w as new. A farmhouse is passed down from mother to daughter for generations. Never meant to be sold, the house stands as a safe haven for the women of the family "no matter what occurs between them and the men in their lives." But when Frannie and Natalie's mother dies, the house becomes the center of emotional turmoil. Indepdendent, modern women, the sisters don't necessarily need the assurance of property in the same way their ancestors did. Natalie and her boyfriend Jake want to sell the property while the more impulsive Frannie insists they must keep it in the family and goes to stunning lengths to see that this is done. .
