Publisher's Note
Every August since college, Sara, Adam, Maddy, and Peter have shared the same summer house on the eastern shore of Long Island. The shining light of the crowd has always been Sara, a young woman with an allure that causes women to confide in her and men to fall in love with her. But then tragedy occurs and the overriding question becomes: Who owns this broken girl now, her mother or her closest friends? For this tight clan of young people, still dumbly caught in that nebula of their late twenties and early thirties, Sara's death forces them to rethink their notion of what it means to be a friend, what it means to grow up, and, finally, what it means to be mortal. At its most introspective and moving center, however, Surrender, Dorothy is the story of what happens to Natalie, Sara's mother. This mother-daughter relationship was of such closeness that they'd become a kind of couple - a couple that told each other everything. But in the wake of the accident, Natalie is forced to realize that when a child dies, there is only one truth: You can't get over it, ever, but still you have a life to live.

Industry reviews
"After some uneven scene setting..., Wolitzer finds her pace....[She] shares her characters' knack for wry comedy....Wolitzer's amiability proves something of a liability, however, given the novel's somber theme."
New York Times Book Review - Sylvia Brownrigg (05/25/1999)
