Eleanor Brown's first novel, The Weird Sisters, tells the story of the three Andreas sisters who have widely different personalities. They reunite at their home in the rural town of Barnwell, Ohio, after their mother is diagnosed with breast cancer. Their father, an English professor with a passion for all things William Shakespeare named his three daughters after Shakespeare heroines: Rosalind (aka Rose), Cordelia (aka Cordy), and Bianca (aka Bean). The novel’s title, The Weird Sisters, alludes to the three witches (often referred to as “the weird sisters”) that serve as the introduction to the Shakespearean tragedy Macbeth. Brown’s debut novel is written in the first-person collective through the perspectives of each of the Andreas sisters.
