Gardiner Amory’s life is reeling – Nixon is being impeached, his wife is leaving
him and his worldview is rapidly becoming outdated. His daughter, Daley, has
spent her life negotiating her parents’ conflicting worlds: the liberal realm of
her mother and the conservative, liquor-soaked life of her father. But when the
pair divorces, Gardiner’s basest impulses are unleashed in a deluge, and the
chasm between all of them widens.
As she reaches adulthood, Daley rejects her father’s prejudices and embarks on
her own life – until Gardiner hits rock bottom. Returning home to help her
father get sober, Daley risks everything she’s found beyond him, including a
chance at love, in an attempt to repair a trust that was broken long ago . . .
'A gripping epic about a father and daughter that plumbs the dark side of a
family riven by addiction and mental illness' - Entertainment Weekly
