The Nix
A New York Times 2016 Notable BookEntertainment Weekly's #1 Book of the YearA Washington Post 2016 Notable BookA Slate Top Ten Book"Nathan Hill is a maestro." -John IrvingIt's 2011, and Samuel Andresen-Anderson hasn't seen his mother, Faye, in decades-not since she abandoned the family when he was a boy. The media paints Faye as a radical hippie with a sordid past, but as far as Samuel knows, his mother was an ordinary girl who married her high-school sweetheart. Now she's reappeared, having committed an absurd crime that electrifies the nightly news and inflames a politically divided country.
Two facts are certain: she's facing some serious charges, and she needs Samuel's help.To save her, Samuel will have to embark on his own journey, uncovering long-buried secrets about the woman he thought he knew, secrets that stretch across generations and have their origin all the way back in Norway, home of the mysterious Nix. Which version of his mother is true? As he does so, Samuel will confront not only Faye's losses but also his own lost love, and will relearn everything he thought he knew about his mother, and himself.
