Synopsis
THE NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER
Two weeks in a remote island villa with America's most dysfunctional family - what could possibly go wrong?
It was set to be the family vacation of a lifetime.
From Manhattan to Majorca, two weeks in a remote island villa, with the sort of relaxation, culture and cuisine that only Europe can offer. At least, that was Franny's plan. She wasn't counting on the extra baggage . . .
Warm, wry and glowing with life, The Vacationers is a glorious novel of marriage, friendship, secrets, lies - and love.

I loved Emma Straub's The Vacationers; funny, poignant and beautifully observed.Jojo Moyes, author of ME BEFORE YOU
I would read anything Emma Straub writes. She's a natural talent and a gorgeous and witty storyteller. The characters will linger with me long into the future.Elizabeth Gilbert, author of EAT, PRAY, LOVE
Charming and absorbing, this is a novel that demands to be read in long, satisfying gulps.Maggie Shipstead, author of SEATING ARRANGEMENTS
Witty, big-hearted, and packed with wisdom, The Vacationers is a breezy read that sneaks in its emotional wallops and leaves you smiling for days.Maria Semple, author of Orange Prize-shortlisted WHERE'D YOU GO, BERNADETTE?
