'Her best novel yet' The Times 'Incandescent' The Observer Two
parents stand by powerlessly as their only child seems intent on
destroying herself. Meanwhile the mother - a novelist - attempts to
understand her uneasy, unresolved relationship with her own mother.
Weaving between childhoods past and present, as well as a current
narrative laced with temptation and betrayal, this is the delicate
journey of a mother, daughter, wife and author struggling to make
sense of her world. But can a writer ever be trusted with the truth
of her own story? Clear-eyed, self-lacerating and at times
frighteningly direct, Julie Myerson's latest novel explores
maternal love as the emotional foundation we both crave and fear. A
howl of fury, as well as a moving love letter from a mother to a
daughter, this is a book about damage, addiction, recovery and
creativity. 'I wolfed it all down - it's just so incredibly
compelling' Daily Mail 'Glitteringly painful' Rachel Cusk 'A
compulsive read. Searingly honest and raw' Deborah Moggach
