The Names
Three futures branch from one exhausted decision at a registry office: what to call a newborn son.
In the aftermath of a devastating storm, Cora walks to register her newborn son’s birth with her nine-year-old daughter beside her, and the name she chooses splits the novel into three lives. Knapp follows each version forward, tracking how one decision made in a moment of exhaustion reshapes a family across decades.
