In one moment, two lives will be changed forever … and forever … and forever. The one thing that’s certain is that they met on a Cambridge street by chance and felt a connection that would last a lifetime. But as for what happened next … They fell wildly in love or went their separate ways. They kissed or they thought better of it. They married soon after or were together for a few weeks before splitting up. They grew distracted and disappointed with their daily lives together or found solace together only after hard years spent apart. With The Versions of Us, Laura Barnett has created a world as magical and affecting as those that captivated readers in One Day and Life after Life. It is a tale of possibilities and consequences that rings across the shifting decades, from the fifties, sixties, seventies, and on to the present, showing how even the smallest choices can define the course of our lives.

Editorial Reviews

Editorial Reviews

“I simply adored this wonderful novel.” —Jessie Burton, New York Times bestselling author
“Versions is smart enough to know that the fantasy of infinite possibility is thrilling—but not nearly as much as the reality of true human connection.” —Entertainment Weekly
“An intriguing exploration of the many roads not taken.” —Booklist
“Well written, stunningly crafted, and constantly surprising… An utterly convincing love story.” —Times (London)
“Barnett renders an irresistible concept in sweet, cool prose.” —Observer (London)
“Its very scope is a joy, the technical achievement seamlessly done, and the ending—all the endings—suitably affecting.” —Guardian (London)
“This book is evocative and atmospheric.” —Irish Independent
“Barnett never tries to make a grandiose statement about fate. Instead, in each story line, we simply see that the greatest parts of life lie in the journey and the connections we make along the way.” —Shelf Awareness
“Barnett masterfully pulls the reader through these alternating tales. Each option is compelling and believable.” —BookPage
“Imagines the delicious prospect of romantic do-overs, cleverly negotiating the tricky and often dizzying terrain of three versions of first love…A masterly romantic study of love’s choices and consequences.” —Publishers Weekly (starred review)
“Reading this ambitious first novel is like putting together the pieces of a complex puzzle. The challenge pays off—only when the puzzle is complete can readers see the whole panoramic picture.” —Library Journal
