The story follows the very rich Salo and a Johanna Oppenheimer as they meet in NYC and try to grow their families. They have triplets born in the early times of IVF and they freeze one remaining embryo. As the triplets grow up, they aren’t very close to each other or to their parents. They go off to college and two of them even go to the same school, but pretend they don’t know each other. Johanna has always dreamed of a big family and decides to use a surrogate and their last embryo to have one more chance at a child to be close with. Phoebe, the 4th and youngest of their children is born 19 years after the triplets.
This book is LONG and very detailed. Too detailed. I actually really enjoyed the story despite the slow burn, but it’s gets lost in too much detail and unnecessary commentary. Salo is very into art and there’s a lot of discussion around it so if you like art and upcoming artist, you will be very happy.
