The Rubin family, everybody agrees, seems doomed to happiness.
Claudia Rubin is in her heyday. Wife, mother, rabbi and sometime moral voice of the nation, everyone wants to be near her at her eldest son's glorious February wedding. Until Leo becomes a bolter and the Rubin family begins to unravel.
When We Were Bad is a warm, poignant and true portrayal of a London family in crisis, in love, in denial and - ultimately - in luck.
