It's every woman's fantasy: to pack a bag and leave everything
behind. Meet Maribeth Klein, a harried working mother who is so
busy taking care of her husband and twins that she doesn't even
realise that she has had a heart attack. But her recuperation seems
to be an imposition on those who rely on her. So Maribeth does the
unthinkable - she packs a bag and leaves. Maribeth has always
wondered who she is and where she comes from: and now's the time to
find out. Now, far from the demands of family and career, she is
finally able to own up to the secrets she has been keeping from
herself and those she loves. From the bestselling author of If I
Stay and I Was Here comes a stunning new novel for Forman's adult
readers, an unflinching portrait of a woman confronting the joys
and sorrows of marriage, motherhood and friendship. *~*~*Readers
love Leave Me*~*~* '[Leave Me] reminds you that we are all fragile
human beings, imperfect and all a work in progress and above all,
it reminds us that life is complex and frightening but not
impossible' The Bookbag 'Read it, as they say, and weep' Daily Mail
'When I reached the end of this book, I was in tears because of how
honest and raw it was. This book will really make you think very
deeply about your deepest desires' Twenty-Three Pages 'An appealing
fairy tale for the exhausted and underappreciated' Kirkus 'Deftly
explores the domestic struggles of 21st-century bourgeois life.
This is an insightful ode to-and cautionary tale for-the
overburdened working mother' Book Page 'With humor and pathos,
Forman depicts Maribeth's complicated situation and her thoroughly
satisfying arc, leaving readers feeling as though they've really
accompanied Maribeth on her journey' Publishers Weekly
