About This Book
LOUISA IS THE OLDER ONE, THE CONSCIENTIOUS STUDENT, the one who yearns for a good marriage, an artistic career, a family. Clem, the archetypal youngest, is the rebel: uncontainable, daring, irresistible to men.
Alternating between the sisters' voices, I See You Everywhere unfolds across twenty- five years, from 1980 to 2005, beginning when the sisters are in their early twenties. Louisa resents that the charismatic Clem has always been the favorite, while Clem is under self-imposed pressure to be the brilliant iconoclast. Their complex bond, Louisa observes, is "like a double helix, two souls coiling around a common axis, joined yet never touching."
This vivid, heart-rending story of what we can and cannot do for those we love is alive with the same sensual detail and riveting characterization that mark Julia Glass's novels. In I See You Everywhere, she delivers a piercingly candid double portrait that reveals the very nature of sisterhood.
