Items related to Tomorrow (Vintage International)
On a midsummer's night Paula Hook lies awake; Mike, her husband of twenty-five years, asleep beside her; her teenage twins, Nick and Kate, sleeping in nearby rooms. The next day, she knows, will redefine all of their lives. Recalling the years before and after her children were born, Paula begins a story that is both a glowing celebration of love possessed and a moving acknowledgment of the secrets on which our very identities rest. Brilliantly distilling half a century into one suspenseful night, Tomorrow is an eloquent meditation on the mystery of happiness.

Review:
"A writer of great range, vigor and acuity. . . . Evokes perfectly the circularities of a sleepless night."
--The New York Times Book Review "An honest, sometimes funny, sometimes snort-aloud-true, tale of a woman's love for her family."
--The Hartford Courant "The circular way Paula unwinds her story-less chronologically than thematically-told with the warmth of a woman talking to her adored children, is captivating."
--Portland Oregonian "Swift's]talent shines through in his smooth prose and keen eye for detail.... Tomorrow provides a revealing look at one family's secrets and how they impact many lives, despite one's best efforts to manipulate the outcome."
--Rocky Mountain News
