Madeline Cash & Angela Tomaski: Ruin Runs in the Family

Family legends, open marriages, sibling chaos, criminal conspiracies: two standout debut novelists bring riotous new energy to the family saga.

Taking us from a crumbling English manor to an imploding American household – and finding love, absurdity, and catastrophe in both – Angela Tomaski’s The Infamous Gilberts and Madeline Cash’s Lost Lambs open up a lively, hilarious conversation about inheritance, kinship, and mining comedy from the messiest, most intimate corners of family life.

Chaired by Catherine Wilson Garry.
