Publisher's Synopsis
Eudora is convinced it is her mother's infidelity (announced during a toast at her cousin's wedding), and her sister's spendthrift ways that are to blame for her family's divorce, financial devastation, and existential miseries. But soon she'll realize every member of her family has been lying to her. Much more has been hidden than revealed. Eudora, distraught, must lose her judgmental ways and be reconciled with her Faith before she can forgive herself or her family. Anybody with a family knows what it is to fiercly dislike those whom we are supposed to love. Often it is the members of one's own family who provide the greatest test of our mercy and patience. Written for the "Year of Mercy", Broken Things is a timely fictional expression of the call to "[b]e merciful, just as your Father is merciful. (Lk 6:36)"
