Millions of viewers tune in every week to watch them play flawless, black-and-white versions of themselves. But now its 1964, and the Newmans idealized apple-pie perfection suddenly feels woefully out of touch. Ratings are in free fall, as are the Newmans themselves. Del is keeping an explosive secret from his wife, and Dinah is slowly going numb-literally. Steady, stable Guy is hiding the truth about his love life, and the charmed luck of rock n roll idol Shep may have finally run out.When Del-the creative motor behind the show-is in a mysterious car accident, Dinah decides to take matters into her own hands. She hires Juliet Dunne, an outspoken, impassioned young reporter, to help her write the final episode. But Dinah and Juliet have wildly different perspectives about what it means to be a woman, and a family, in 1964. Can the Newmans hold it together to change television history? Or will they be canceled before they ever have the chance?Funny, big-hearted, and deeply moving, Meet the Newmans is a rich family story about the dual lives we lead. Because even when our lives arent televised weekly, we all have a behind-the-scenes.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Mia Karts","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52178004836640,"sku":"NEW1250372445","price":19.88,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0980\/7426\/3840\/files\/715VROF6a7L.jpg?v=1786483215","url":"https:\/\/miakarts.com\/products\/meet-the-newmans-a-novel-1250372445","provider":"Miakarts Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
