Summary

Seleccionado como uno de los mejores thrillers del 2021 por Publishers Weekly

Selección del Club de Lectura de Good Morning America.

El lanzamiento más esperado de 2021 en más de treinta países. Un thriller psicológico lleno de tensión sobre la creación y la destrucción de una familia.

«Creíamos que nos conocíamos el uno al otro. Creíamos que nos conocíamos a nosotros mismos.»

Blythe no sabe qué es verdad y qué es mentira: ¿está viviendo la vida que siempre deseó, con un marido y una hija perfectos? ¿O está repitiendo su sórdida historia familiar, marcada por el desapego y el maltrato? ¿Es Fox, su marido, el compañero y padre ideal o tiene una vida paralela? Su hija Violet ¿es una niña brillante o es malvada de nacimiento? Todo depende del día, puede que nada parezca verdad. Blythe teme no estar a la altura y un segundo hijo parece entonces la solución. Así llega Sam, el bebé con el que sueña cualquier madre. El instinto es una novela que se queda grabada. Una historia de horror y redención, una exploración del origen de la maldad y cómo los traumas familiares pasan de madres a hijas.

ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

Publishers Weekly Best Book 2021 Mystery/Thriller

A GOOD MORNING AMERICA BOOK CLUB PICK


"Starkly original and compulsively readable, The Push is a deep dive into the darkest nooks and crannies of motherhood."
--Kristin Hannah, #1 New York Times bestselling author

A tense, page-turning psychological drama about the making and breaking of a family--and a woman whose experience of motherhood is nothing at all what she hoped for--and everything she feared


Blythe Connor is determined that she will be the warm, comforting mother to her new baby Violet that she herself never had.

But in the thick of motherhood's exhausting early days, Blythe becomes convinced that something is wrong with her daughter--she doesn't behave like most children do.

Or is it all in Blythe's head? Her husband, Fox, says she's imagining things. The more Fox dismisses her fears, the more Blythe begins to question her own sanity, and the more we begin to question what Blythe is telling us about her life as well.

Then their son Sam is born--and with him, Blythe has the blissful connection she'd always imagined with her child. Even Violet seems to love her little brother. But when life as they know it is changed in an instant, the devastating fall-out forces Blythe to face the truth.

The Push is a tour de force you will read in a sitting, an utterly immersive novel that will challenge everything you think you know about motherhood, about what we owe our children, and what it feels like when women are not believed.
