You all know how much I love Pat Conroy's Prince of Tides. If you don't know what that book is, go look that up and read it right now.
The Prince of Tides (1986)
PAT CONROY has created a huge, brash thunderstorm of a novel, stinging with honesty and resounding with drama. Spanning forty years, this is the story of turbulent Tom Wingo, his gifted and troubled twin sister Savannah, and their struggle to triumph over the dark and tragic legacy of the extraordinary family into which they were born. Filled with the vanishing beauty of the South Carolina low country as well as the dusty glitter of New York City, The Prince of Tides is PAT CONROY at his very best.
And while I loved this book, I wouldn't just willy-nilly go recommend it to people because it is such a hard hitter and there's definitely a lot of trigger warnings that go along with this book. It's considered a modern American classic and this is all about a family saga that spans decades.
