"A graceful, attentive, and beautiful debut." -- George Saunders

For fans of Meg Wolitzer and Maggie Shipstead: a sweeping debut novel following an American artist who returns to Germany--where she fell in love and had a child decades earlier--to confront her past at her former mother-in-law's funeral

It's 1971 when Louise leaves Oregon for D sseldorf, a city grappling with its nation's horrific recent history, to study art. Soon she's embroiled in a scene dramatically different from the one at home, thanks in large part to Dieter, a mercurial musician. Their romance ignites quickly, but life gets in the way: an unplanned pregnancy, hasty marriage, the tense balance of their creative ambitions, and--finally, fatally--a family secret that shatters Dieter, and drives Louise home.

But in 2008 she's headed to Dieter's mother's funeral. She never returned to Germany, and has since remarried, had another daughter, and built a life in Oregon. As she flies into the heart of her past, she reckons with the choices she made, and the ones she didn't, just as her family--current and former--must consider how Louise's life has shaped their own, for better and for worse.

Exquisitely balanced, expansive yet wonderfully intimate, Lifelines explores the indelible ties of family; the shape art, history, and nationality give to our lives; and the ways in which we are forever evolving, with each step we take, with each turn of the Earth.

Portable, comfy, and super sturdy
I LOVE THIS! I bought this trifold mattress for guests and occasional use, and it’s honestly become one of my favorite things. It unfolds smoothly, lays completely flat, and the foam is firm enough to support you but still comfortable to sleep on. When it’s folded, it’s super easy to move and doesn’t take up much space. The cover is easy to clean, and it doesn’t lose its shape after sleeping on it multiple nights. Great for guests, kids’ sleepovers, or even stretching and lounging. Definitely worth it.

Good trifold foldout
Color: White, Size: S06-Single
Great as an emergency pullout. Very comfortable, easy to setup and carry with the handles. Good as extra support as an exercise cushion too. Mattress is a little hard but better than being too soft. Fabric could be softer or thicker, but not too bad quality. May be good for a child's nap time. Fits good in closet for storing or accent ottoman in room.
