In searching for a book that was beautifully written and captured the times, a New York Times book editor recommended that I read 'Send For Me' by Lauren Fox. I think I read it in two days."
—Jenna Bush Hager, TODAY
An anthropological excavation... It is haunted throughout by the endlessly fascinating question of inheritance. How much of our stories — and which parts — truly belong to us?...  The book is a real achievement — beautifully written, deeply felt, tender and thoughtful... The storytelling is patient, generous... The major accomplishment of “Send for Me” [is] its vivid depiction of a family’s heartbreak, its rending and rebuilding."
—Clare Lombardo, New York Times Book Review

​Real family letters from Nazi era heighten 'Send for Me,' Lauren Fox's novel about women separated by the regime

Jim Higgins Milwaukee Journal Sentinel
Fox's latest novel sees her continuing to explore family ties and romantic links. On this occasion, though, she attempts something tonally different and structurally more ambitious. 'Send for Me' straddles generations, shuttling between 1930s Germany in the run-up to war, and Milwaukee and London in the last years of the 20th century. Drawing on chapters from her own family history, Fox shines a piercing light into the wreckage of the past and illuminates what she terms "the great, bottomless, complex, consuming love between mothers and daughters. ... ('Send for Me' is) an artfully constructed and richly absorbing novel that shows how love is strengthened, not weakened, over distance and time."
--Malcom Forbes, Star Tribune
