How To Love Your Daughter
This is a contemporary literary fiction novel about a grandmother who never met her daughter's children and the long arc of love, distance, and memory. The central question asks how a relationship born from care can drift toward estrangement, and whether reconciliation is possible. Winner of the Sapir Prize 2022, this intimate, psychologically precise narrative speaks to adult readers who appreciate nuanced family dramas, moral ambiguity, and the quiet power of memory.
Presented with quiet, precise prose, the narrative moves through time, weaving present observations with memories to reveal how ordinary acts of care accumulate into deeper tensions. The focus remains on the inner life of the grandmother and the delicate balance between protection and possession, offering a humane, thought-provoking meditation on family dynamics.
As the story unfolds, memory shapes perception and love wields surprising power, capable of both sustaining connection and widening distance. The reading experience invites empathy for complicated relationships and rewards careful, patient attention with insights about forgiveness, belonging, and the resilience of family bonds.

- Intimate, restrained prose that rewards careful, reflective reading
- Nuanced portrayal of generational dynamics, belonging, and the costs of care
