For the past two decades, Rocky has looked forward to her family's yearly escape. Their rustic beach-town rental has been the site of sweet memories, its quirky furniture and mismatched pots and pans greeted like old friends.
Now, sandwiched between her children who are adult enough to be fun but still young enough to need her, and her parents who are alive and healthy, Rocky wants to preserve this golden moment forever. This one precious week when everything is in balance; everything is in flux.
But every family has its secrets and hers is no exception.
With her body in open revolt and surprises invading her peaceful haven, the perfectly balanced seesaw of Rocky's life is tipping towards change...

Praise for SANDWICH:
'Sandwich is joy in book form. I laughed continuously, except for the parts that made me cry. Catherine Newman does a miraculous job reminding us of all the wonder there is to be found in life' Ann Patchett, author of Tom Lake
'I stand in awe, it's just perfect' Elin Hilderbrand, #1 New York Times bestselling author of Swan Song
'If you are after a book to pack on your next holiday, look no further. Here is a novel which will go down as easily as a chilled poolside drink' i Newspaper
'I adored this novel and am forcing it on everyone I know - Jenny Colgan, author of The Summer Skies
'Newman is truly a master of taking complex and chaotic human emotion and making sense of it' Guardian

One of the best books I've read recently
Rocky and her family have spent the last twenty summer holidays at the same house by the sea and this year is no different. Being now of this sandwich age, when her grown-up children and still fit parents do not need her to take care of them, Rocky undergoes a summer of holiday tradition, reminiscence of the past and enjoyment of the present. With an insightful sense of humor, Newman has written a funny, engaging, relatable and moving tale of familial love with all its glorious ups and downs.
