Reviews

Anna Raverat is a humane and generous writer, giving voice to our best instincts and communicating, by quiet and often funny moments, a sense of our ability to overcome adversity with love.
A detailed observation of love, work and life told through a woman's crumbling marriage. The first-person voice is so compelling, it almost reads like a thriller. Addictive
Raverat mines the depth of this strife with wit, warmth and a sophisticated wisdom that makes it an unputdownable read.
Wise and subtle and witty . . . filled with humanity and warmth. A compulsively readable book about a breakup from a brilliant new writer
