‘Tragicomic, piercingly satirical and perceptive about the American dream’ Observer
‘Dark, funny and delightfully unhinged... I just loved this book’ Viv Groskop, author of One Ukrainian Summer
The Greenspan family are the envy of Brookline, Massachusetts. Scott Greenspan is a successful cardiologist. His wife is a pillar of the community, his daughter works at a distinguished New York publishing house and his son is at medical school, preparing to follow in his footsteps. They are an exceptional family, living in exceptional times.
But when Scott is caught faking blood test results, he sets in motion a series of scandals that threatens to shatter his family. HOPE is an excruciatingly funny account of the tumultuous year that follows, written by one of the most brilliant young American novelists at work today.

Paperback. Condición: new. Paperback. 'Intelligent, bighearted, spew-your-gefilte-fish-funny novels' New York Times The year is 2013 and the Greenspans are the envy of Brookline, Massachusetts, an idyllic (and idealistic) suburb west of Boston. Scott Greenspan is a successful cardiologist. His wife, Deb, is a pillar of the community who spends her free time helping resettle refugees. Their daughter, Maya, works at a distinguished New York publishing house and their son, Gideon, is preparing to follow in his fathers footsteps. They are an exceptional family from an exceptional place, living in exceptional times. But when Scott is caught falsifying blood samples at work, he sets in motion a series of scandals that threatens to shatter his family. Deb leaves him for a female power broker; Maya rekindles a hazardous affair from her youth; and Gideon drops out of college to go on a dangerous journey that will put his principles to the test. Hope follows the Greenspans over the course of one tumultuous year as they question, and compromise, the values that have shaped their lives. But in the midst of their disillusionment, theyll discover their own capacity for resilience, connection, and, ultimately, hope. Hopefollows the Greenspan family over the course of one tumultuous year as they question, and compromise, the values that have shaped their lives.
