'A simmering debut, heady with the possibilities of language and
the righteousness of female rage' Kiran Millwood Hargrave, author
of The Mercies ______ 32-year-old Iris is adrift: newly single,
living at home with her mother and working a dead-end job. Her life
changes when she meets the mysterious and beguiling Hazel, who
lives at a women's commune on a remote farm hidden in the Kent
Downs. At the farm, the women can be loud and dirty, live and eat
abundantly, under the leadership of the gargantuan Blythe. Drawn to
Hazel and the possibility of a new start away from a world of men
who have only let her down, Iris throws herself into this
alternative way of life, seizing on new experiences and hidden
desires. But even among the women, she witnesses power struggles,
cruelty and transgressions that threaten their precarious
existence. When a group of men arrive on the farm, the commune's
existence is thrown into question, culminating in an act of
devastating violence.
