"Three Junes" is a vivid story set on both sides of the Atlantic during three fateful summers in the life of a Scottish family.

"Three Junes" is a vivid story set on both sides of the Atlantic during three fateful summers in the life of a Scottish family. In June 1989, Paul McLeod, the father of the family, falls in love with a young American artist, Fern, while traveling through Greece and relives the secret troubles of his marriage. His son, likable and somewhat withdrawn, Fenno lives a lonely life in the West Village, where he runs a book and bird-studying equipment store. He believes he is protected from emotional ties, but when some people penetrate the realm of his heart in unusual ways, he will learn the true nature of love. This time it is Fenno who meets and charms Fern, the same woman who charmed his father in Greece ten years earlier. Expecting their own son, Fern, like Fenno and Paul before him, must come to terms with the past in order to embrace the future...

Delicately crafted yet emotionally suspenseful, often as comic as it is tragic, "June Three" is an instructive triptych about how we learn to live, and to live to the fullest, despite incurable sorrows and betrayals of the heart - how family ties, both those we are born into and those we create, can often offer redemption and joy. This novel won the National Book Award for best American novel published in 2002.
