A terminally ill father is given a strange gift: seven more Sundays - out of order, randomly scattered across the years of his children's lives - to show up unseen, to watch, and finally let go. Noel Cavanaugh has three to four months to live and two adult children he has never found the words for. Then a stranger appears in his hospice room and offers him something no dying man should be able to have: one more look at the people he loves.
Not the way he left things. The way things actually were.
Seven Sundays, scattered across decades. He arrives invisible, unable to speak, able to whisper only one word into the air and move one small object. He watches his daughter Mara, age nine, build a birdhouse alone in a July backyard - because he forgot to come home. He watches his son Felix, at seventeen, nearly sacrifice his future to protect a father who never knew he needed protecting. He finds, in his daughter's home office in 2019, a drawer full of hundreds of letters she has been writing him for fifteen years. Never sent.
And one Sunday - the sixth - brings him back to the day before his wife Clara died, to a house still warm with her presence, and a truth he has spent thirty years unable to face.
Seven Sundays is a novel about the love we carry silently and the words we find too late. About fathers and children. About the things we leave for each other, and whether they are ever found.
For readers of Fredrik Backman, Matt Haig, and Jojo Moyes.
