The Dutch House by Ann Patchett

Danny and Maeve Conroy grow up in the Dutch House, a grand and unusual home outside Philadelphia purchased by their father as a surprise for their mother. But the house that was meant to mark the family's good fortune instead becomes the center of its unraveling.

After their father remarries, Danny and Maeve find themselves pushed out of the home they grew up in. What remains is their extraordinary bond with one another and a shared fascination with the house itself. Over the decades that follow, the siblings return again and again to sit outside it, revisiting their childhood and trying to understand the family history that continues to shape their lives.

Spanning five decades, The Dutch House is a deeply moving novel about siblings, inheritance, forgiveness, memory, and the powerful hold a childhood home can have long after we leave it behind.
