This is a celebration of family - of shifting allegiances, riotous laughter, complicated love. Meet four sisters - Cassandra, Fay, Lela, and Suzette - and their sprawling circle of daughters and sons, parents and cousins, friends and lovers. Here are strong women and enigmatic men whose quirks are written in their children's faces, whose siblings are always getting their shared stories wrong, whose needs weigh heavily: money, status, a lover, a child - or simply company. Journeying from a glittering soirée to a haunted porch, Company is a multigenerational, joyfully honest expression of belonging - and of how far we sometimes land from home.

"There are undeniable shades of Bernardine Evaristo's Girl, Women, Other in this debut, which follows the lives of the extended family and friends of four sisters across several decades in and around Washington DC . . . Sanders has fun playing with her characters as alignments and allegiances shift and change with the perspectives, points of view and timeframes of each story's narrator." - Marie Claire, The Best New Books of 2024

"A deftly woven tapestry that scrupulously depicts familial ties and estrangement, richly told with a nuance that allows each character dignity and grace" - New York Times

"The relatives meet, eat, party and bubble with resentment... enjoyable" - Grazia

"The prose is subtle and lean... Company shows the frayed edges of friendship and family, and Sanders extracts comedy from the formidable situations that erupt in people's lives" - Washington Post

"The Collins family and the many folks in their orbit are endlessly fascinating, frustrating, and fun to meet on the page. Company is a riotous, dazzling debut that is as profound as it is entertaining" - Deesha Philyaw, author of The Secret Lives of Church Ladies
