"You can't choose your relatives. But you can love them, loathe them, rage against them or take after them. The new Granta book of the family includes A.L. Kennedy on 'battling' Joe Price, the grandfather she loved, Linda Grant on her struggle with her mother in the early stages of Alzheimer's disease, A.M. Homes on finally meeting with her biological father, Robyn Davidson on her unexpected 'marriage' to Eddie, an Aborigine, Anna Pyasetskaya's heartbreaking search for her sons body during the chaos of the Chechen war, and David Goldblatt's attempts to cope with the aftermath of his father's murder."--Jacket.
