Early Warning

"Early Warning," the second book in Pulitzer Prize-winner Jane Smiley's acclaimed American trilogy, follows the Langdon family as they navigate the transformative decades from the 1950s through the 1980s. As the family members scatter across the country and face a rapidly changing world marked by social upheavals and historical events, their personal stories reveal the enduring complexities of family, home, and resilience. Richly developed and deeply engaging, the novel stands alone as a compelling exploration of American life during a turbulent era.
