رواية .. بقية حياتنا

Nominated for the 2025 Booker Prize. "You don't feel like you're reading a novel as much as you feel like you're sitting in a car next to a dear friend driving you down the road. A very moving experience." - Ann Patchett. “A humanitarian novel par excellence...quiet, beautiful and poignant.” -Sarah Jessica Parker. An inspiring journey novel that captures the meaning of life, about marriage, midlife, and a man at a crossroads in his life. When Tom Layward's wife cheated on his wife twelve years ago, he was determined to leave her as soon as his youngest son left home. Now, as he drives his daughter to college in Pittsburgh, he remembers his promise to himself. He also suffers from health problems and forced leave from work. So, instead of returning to his wife in Westchester, Tom continues driving west, with a vague plan to visit people from his past — an old friend from college, his ex, his brother, his son — on his way, perhaps, to California. He heads toward a future he has yet to imagine, while contemplating his past and the choices he made that led him to this very present. Subtle, tender, and observant, The Rest of Our Lives is a story about what to do when the rest of your life is just the beginning.
