The Forgiveness of Others

This novel is about a family in the year following the death of an infant.  The story is told from the point of view of the mother, father, brother and sister.  I appreciated the authenticity of the family.  Their home and their interactions were normal and then there was this horrible event that happened to them and they all reacted differently.  I particularly liked the way the kids were separate from their parents.  I think that the children were well written and realistically affected by their parents.  As parents we often forget or underestimate children.
