Praise

“Lauren Aliza Green's The World After Alice is a bouquet of a book: thoughtful, heartfelt, funny, tender, tough, and gorgeously written. It is a novel about how love won't save you, except in the ways that it does, about the pain of family life, and also its transcendent qualities. Green is a tremendous new writer.”
—Elizabeth McCracken, author of The Hero of This Book

“The World After Alice is a study of grief, resilience, and surprising joy in the face of incomprehensible loss. I know these characters will stay with me.”
—Mary Beth Keane, author of Ask Again, Yes

“A page-turner of a family drama. The World After Alice is at turns brutally honest, funny, and deeply empathic.”
—Charmaine Wilkerson, author of Black Cake & Good Dirt
