From the Booker Longlisted author of A TOWN CALLED SOLACE

Orphaned young, Kate Morrison was her older brother Matt's protégé, her curious fascination for pond-life fed by his passionate interest in the natural world. Now a zoologist, she can identify organisms under a microscope, but seems blind to the tragedy of her own emotional life. She thinks she's outgrown her family, who were once her entire world - but she can't seem to outgrow her childhood or lighten the weight of their mutual past.

'I've been trying to tell everyone I know about Mary Lawson . . . Each one of her novels is just a marvel' Anne Tyler

'A remarkable novel, utterly gripping...I read it at a single sitting, then I read it again, just for the pleasure of it' Joanne Harris, author of
Chocolat

'Full of blossoming insights and emotional acuity...a compelling and serious page-turner' Observer

Opinie krytyków

Beautifully written, carefully balanced, Mary Lawson constructs a history of sacrifice, emotional isolation and family love without sounding a false note
Full of blossoming insights and emotional acuity...a compelling and serious page-turner
Lawson's evocative storytelling...knows just how to draw the reader on...this is a novel of disappointed hopes and self-delusion, but it has a feel-good finish. Move over Lake Wobegon
A novel of a darkly unpredictable and compelling kind. It is a wise book

This was the first novel by Mary Lawson that I read. It was immediately followed by a reading spree of all her novels, as she is a master storyteller and has a deep understanding of human nature and human shortcomings. Her prose is pristine, seemingly simple and without pathos. The family story also seems simple, yet has great depths. The protagonist takes her time to unravel a troubled childhood and come to terms with her life and its meaning.
The book is masterfully read and a pure joy to listen to! This is literature at its best. Comparable to the novels of E.Strout.
