**Some possible spoilers** These are necessary because there is no way to review this book without mentioning some of the events in the story.The closer I got to the end of this book, the more I wondered how this story would be resolved in the few pages that were left. The trouble is, it never was. There is absolutely no way to know how this story ended. My imagination doesn't tell me how this all worked out.It was a good story, as far as the story-telling went. I actually liked the story's progression and wanted to know how it would all turn out.However, as others have said, the parents seemed to lack curiosity about what was wrong with their daughter. Why do they never ask for a concrete diagnosis? Why do they not take her to every doctor in the country until they find someone sufficiently well-equipped to correctly diagnose her? Would the emotional issues with Kate ever be resolved or cured? She seemed to be stuck in a world of resentment and sullenness, with no hope of ever coming out the other end as a healthy functional young woman. We never find out what her diagnosis is. We never find out why she made the accusations she made against her father.There wasn't one single moment in this book when I trusted Kate to be around Josh, nor was there one single moment when Kate appeared as a sympathetic character. I disliked her throughout the book, even though her parents seemed to think the sun rose and set on her.We never find out how Josh progressed through his injury. Did he regain his age-appropriate functions? Was it ever determined that he would always be a step behind every other child in his age group?I'm not aware that the author is a psychologist, so perhaps it's impossible for her to flesh out these characters, emotionally and/or mentally. This does not serve her readers fairly, and that is unfortunate.
Alert: Some spoilers. I quickly devoured this book -- literally could not put it down. Family History is a story of a family that quickly turns from the ideal family to most people's worst nightmares. Ned, the father is an artist and school teacher; Rachel, a mother and art restorer; Kate the popular teen. Until she returns from camp, sullen and changed. Rachel is finally pregnant with a long awaited son, and when Kate drops him in a seeming accident and then accuses Ned of sexual abuse the family falls apart. Much of the start of the novel lays the foundation for this shocking incident, almost unbelievable in its horror. The accusations tear the family apart, and Kate spirals. She is sent to a therapeutic boarding school.But what happened? Was the accident truly an accident? Is Ned innocent? And how will this play out.While the novel was well-written to the point of being very painful to read, the ending was not satisfying, and did not provide the hoped for answers (instead it suggests that these answers will be forthcoming and that Kate is on the road to that). I suppose Shapiro wants us to draw our own conclusions, but I'm unsure if that is fair. It kind of let me down not to know. The ending was a little too pat: the accident was an accident. Ned very probably was innocent. Then why did Kate do what she did? Is there a connection to camp?I have read and enjoyed other books by this author, and enjoyed this one too, so I am inferring that Kate probably was a victim. At camp. And that much of what she did was based on that. But how awful and shocking.
Last week, author and memoirist Dani Shapiro wrote a thoughtful essay on her blog, On Doing What We Can. She was struggling with her task at hand, as a writer. Who might care about what she writes and why should she write, when there are so many crucial issues at stake in the world. She went on to talk about how she felt similar feelings before when her infant son was sick and during the 9/11 attack. Horrific times make us all question our importance in the world and whether what we do and whether our contributions are significant enough. I was so struck by her words and her essay and subsequently read an essay that she wrote years ago, about an accident that her babysitter had with her son, which she also wrote a novel about. The novel is FAMILY HISTORY that she wrote 10 years ago. I thought I had read all her books, several of which are memoirs and all of which have moved me in many ways, to the point that I can say that she is truly one of my favorite writers. And, I eagerly await her new memoir coming out this spring, HOURGLASS: TIME, MEMORY, MARRIAGE.FAMILY HISTORY introduces a young couple just starting their lives together. They move from the hustle bustle of Manhattan to a small town to raise their child, thinking they are going to provide a bucolic lifestyle for themselves and their little family. They have their own family/friend issues, a judgmental widowed mother-in-law, parents who reside in the small town and seem to know everything and control everything, picture perfect best friends whom they can never seem to live up to and envy seems to creep up on them even though they adore them. Their beautiful young daughter is a star student and athlete and then one day everything changes. Add a later in life baby to the mix, a dreadful accident and all hell seems to break lose. Once a happy family, can they remain one.Beautifully written, with characters nailed to a T, this book reads like watching a movie. It is so visual, so real, at times, I wanted to jump into the book and tell them what to do or warn them of what might be ahead. The characters wrestle with feelings that have not been resolved, struggle with issues that they don’t comprehend, however they are intelligent and have the best intentions, perhaps they are just not sure how to get there.
