With its brooding and atmospheric nineteenth century setting, Meg
Rosoff's The Bride's Farewell is a romantic novel that continues to
haunt and captivate the reader long after reading. On the morning
of her wedding, Pell Ridley creeps out of bed in the dark, kisses
her sisters goodbye and flees - determined to escape a future that
offers nothing but hard work and sorrow. The road ahead is rich
with longing, silence and secrets, and each encounter leads her
closer to the untold story of her past. And then she meets a hunter
- infuriating, mysterious and cold. His fate appears to be
strangely entwined with her own. Will he help her to find what she
seeks? Or must she continue to wander the earth, searching for love
and lost things . . . Bestselling author Meg Rosoff has received
great critical acclaim since the publication of her first novel How
I Live Now (winner of the Guardian Children's Fiction Prize). Her
other novels, Just in Case (winner of the 2007 Carnegie Medal) and
What I Was which was described by The Times as 'Samuel Beckett on
ecstasy', are also available from Puffin. Follow Meg on Twitter
