What if you can no longer trust your memories?
Mary is struggling with her memory. She does not have too few recollections but too many, including some that are downright absurd. She has many memories of her childhood: going to parties and on school trips, walks with her father and family dinners. She remembers world events too: the falling of the Twin Towers and the Iraq War. But the most concerning memories she has are about her Jewish grandfather and his role in the death of Adolf Hitler. She feels sure - almost completely sure - that what she has been told can't be true, that she must have imagined the whole thing. But there is a doubt.
To decipher fact from fiction, Mary goes back over her life, sorting through her childhood and adolescence with her three friends in York, through an adulthood accustomed to tragedy. Guided by her family and friends, Mary attempts to figure out what is real, both in history and her own life, all the while wondering if her mind has conjured everything.
'A unique, visionary novel about the toll of memory and the power and fragility of the human heart and mind. Fiona Mozley gives a masterclass in the novel form' Kim Sherwood, author of Testament©2026 Fiona Mozley

Kritikerstimmen
An incredible achievement, a story of friendship, memory, loss, and moral duty unlike any I've read before . . . every character and storyline could be its own novel and yet they come together so thunderously and convincingly . . . It blew me away
A unique, visionary novel about the toll of memory and the power and fragility of the human heart and mind. Fiona Mozley gives a masterclass in the novel form, showing just how much room for invention we still have. I couldn't put it down
A warm, kindly and beautifully written novel about growing up in a family and in history, about inconvenient memory and haunted repression
A stunning jewel of a novel. In crisply evoked scenes, Mozley brings to life all the peril and appetite of childhood friendship, set against the changing political climate of the early twenty-first century. It is a book in which the past lives on in the present, in which history itself proves skittish and irreducible. It is, finally, a gorgeous testament to the fierce bonds that connect us when we are young and the memories that shape not only who we were once, but who we become
All the ingredients are present for a rich and compelling novel
