Gain braids together two stories on very different scales. In one, Laura Body,
divorced mother of two and a real-estate agent in the small town of Lacewood,
Illinois, plunges into a new existence when she learns that she has ovarian
cancer. In the other, Clare & Company, a soap manufacturer begun by three
brothers in nineteenth-century Boston, grows over the course of a century and a
half into an international consumer products conglomerate based in Laura's
hometown. Clare's stunning growth reflects the kaleidoscopic history of America;
Laura Body's life is changed forever by Clare. The novel's stunning conclusion
reveals the countless invisible connections between the largest enterprises and
the smallest lives.
