A powerful, involving new novel, following on from the author's
much-praised debut novel 'Mary George of Allnorthover'. 'An
Irresponsible Age', Lavinia Greenlaw's extraordinary new novel, is
set in London in 1990, with Thatcher still in power but the country
unwilling to 'abandon an idea just because it proved to be a bad
one'. In these hesitant times we follow the life of Juliet Clough
and her three siblings, all of them interdependent in a not-quite
enviable way, clinging together after the death of a brother and
the retreat of their grieving parents. When Juliet, the focus of
them all, is drawn into a complex love affair with the enigmatic
Jacob, the others, too, find themselves falling in love, and then
evading the consequences. None will admit what they are doing, or
why.
