The Names by Florence Knapp
After a storm, Cora and her nine-year-old daughter go to register the birth of her son. When Cora makes a last-minute choice about the baby’s name instead of following her husband’s wish, three alternate versions of their lives unfold over thirty-five years. The novel follows these parallel possibilities to explore family bonds, domestic abuse, and a woman’s search for autonomy and healing.
