Publisher's Summary
As we follow them across the next 20 years, we see chance draw Leila and Marta into Enrique's life; Leila and Enrique loving and losing each other, with Marta the means to renewed hope for Enrique; and, throughout, "good luck or bad tilting life one way or another" for all of them.
With its cast of vividly drawn characters, its graceful movement through time, and its subtle revelation of the essential hopes and doubts of ordinary people whose lives are made extraordinary by circumstance, A Handbook to Luck is Cristina García's most beautiful, elegiac, and deeply emotional novel yet.
What the critics say
"Garcia's most transfixing and moving novel to date." (Booklist)
"Solid....Garcia...lovingly portrays her characters grappling with misfortune and luck in unfamiliar surroundings." (Publishers Weekly)
