‘An absolutely wonderful book’ - Deborah Moggach One morning in
London, two neighbours start to chat over the heads of their
children. Kate Clanchy is a writer, privileged and sheltered.
Antigona is a refugee from Kosovo. On instinct, Kate offers
Antigona a job as a nanny, and Antigona accepts. Over the next five
years and a thousand cups of coffee Antigona’s extraordinary
story slowly emerges. She has escaped from a war, she has divorced
a violent husband, but can she escape the harsh code she was
brought up with, the Kanun of Lek? At the kitchen table where
anything can be said, the women discover they have everything, as
well as nothing, in common.
