Über diesen Titel

Brought to you by Penguin.

She could be the girl dancing on tables one night, and the next she'd be hiding in the shadows.

Just when I thought I understood her, she would melt away and become a completely new person, and I'd have to start all over again.

That's how it was with Anna.

Nick and Anna work the same summer job at their local cinema. Anna is mysterious, beautiful, and from a very different world to Nick.

She's grown up preparing for the end of days, in a tightly-controlled existence where Christmas, getting drunk and sex before marriage are all off-limits.

So when Nick comes into her life, Anna falls passionately in love. Their shared world burns with poetry and music, cigarettes and conversation - hints of the people they hope to become.

But Anna, on the cusp of adulthood, is afraid to give up everything she's ever believed in, and everyone she's ever loved. She walks away, and Nick doesn't stop her.

Years later, a tragedy draws Anna back into Nick's life.

But rekindling their relationship leaves Anna and Nick facing a terrible choice between a love that's endured decades, and the promises they've made to others along the way.

Kritikerstimmen

An astounding debut about sibling grief, religion and sliding doors love (Pandora Sykes)
A modern day Atonement meets David Nicholls. Beautifully written - I couldn't put it down (Emma Gannon)
Absolutely loved it - thought about it as I went to bed, as I was washing up (Giovanna Fletcher)
I loved it, so glad I read it. Beautifully written, made me think about love and breaking out into a world that is completely different (Zoey Lyons)
Really enjoyed the double life aspect of the book. Really good on relationships (Hugh Dennis)
A stunning one-that-got-away romance, this is an intricate story of love entwined with loss that will tug on your heartstrings . . . A beautiful piece of writing
Deep, rich, thoughtful. It reminded me of how I felt when I first read David Nicholls and Jodi Picoult. It's the Romeo and Juliet of our generation (Gillian McAllister)
I loved the brothers' relationship. Very moving. Fascinating (Don Warrington)
This is a little bit Sliding Doors, a little bit One Day, a little bit will-they-won't-they - and you're desperate for a happy ending. Jodie Chapman does a brilliant job of describing what happens when life gets in the way of love. A really special book (Sara Cox)
This beautiful tale of love, loss and sacrifice will break your heart . . . With echoes of David Nicholls' One Day and Sally Rooney's novels, it perfectly captures the agony of falling in love and the razor-sharp reality of pain and loss
