As the years pass, the willow becomes a place for Margaret to share life's wisdom with their four young daughters. Years later, the Dowling women find themselves faced with changes that will define their lives. Debra, the oldest, is shattered when she is asked for a divorce. Rose, who has long hidden her true self, finally begins to evaluate her pattern of being in uncommitted relationships. Linney fears losing Magnolia, the magical shop where she works. Charlotte, the youngest, is the only one who knows their mother is terminally ill and has been charged with keeping it a secret. Margaret, now faced with the greatest of challenges and struggling with whether she has done enough to help her daughters find their way in life, calls them all to the family home to reunite under the willow one last time. The Wisdom of the Willow is a metaphorically rich and reflective tale of sisterhood and strength, of hope and healing, of the choices that shape our lives, and the challenges we all face as we seek to find our places in the world.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimension\u003c\/strong\u003e: 215 x 139 (mm)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eISBN-13\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9781647426521\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Nancy Chadwick","offers":[{"title":"Paperback \/ softback","offer_id":46314217537786,"sku":"9781647426521","price":9.27,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0522\/4297\/2845\/files\/1719680678895_book.jpg?v=1719733812","url":"https:\/\/shulphink.com\/products\/the-wisdom-of-the-willow-a-novel-9781647426521","provider":"Shulph Ink","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
