Sophie, a painter, is holidaying with friends in a stunning villa in Greece - her best friend Helena is shortly to be married, and this is the last time she and her friends will be together as single women. But life has treated them so differently since their university days, that Sophie is questioning everything about their friendship. Meanwhile her partner, Greg, is desperate for them to try for a baby, but she wants to devote herself to her art - and there are other, deeper forces, pulling the two of them in opposite directions.
In the course of the holiday, Sophie paints a nude portrait of her friend Alessia, and becomes involved in an intense affair with Ky, who lives and works on the island. Both the painting, and the affair, will challenge everything Sophie thinks she knows, about art, about motherhood, about sex - and about how and with whom she wants to spend the rest of her life.©2026 Rhiannon Lucy Cosslett

Kritikerstimmen
An energetic and ambitious novel. Cosslett is excellent at the sensual detail of light and food and physical pleasure; she immediately engages us with a seductive drama of friendship between women in an exotic and glamorous White Lotus-like location, while at the same time offering a serious-minded interrogation of art... a thoroughly enjoyable read
This smart and sexy read . . . has lots to say about female artists and domesticity, women's bodies and the male gaze
A grown-up book that's magnetically written
This book is as sharp and incisive as her non-fiction, but with a sinewy, sultry quality that makes it really moreish. I was surprised by the ending - it was neater and sweeter than I expected, the perfect palate cleanser to the bitterness and recrimination that had been building - but I loved it' (Pandora Sykes)
I was engrossed... It's stylish and sexy and I loved the setting and all the food (Amy Liptrot, author of The Outrun and The Instant)
A beautifully human story, romantic and heady and violent and sexy and gorgeously realised. It is honestly the best thing I have read this year (Kirsty Capes, author of The Girls and Careless)
An intelligently nuanced and provocative exploration of female desire, motherhood and creativity. A very sexy, deceptively readable novel, which delves into deep questions with an alluring lightness of touch. You need to preorder this right now! (Elizabeth Morris)
What a gorgeous, hot-blooded novel about art, the senses, and the multitudes of the female body (Charlotte Runcie, author of Bring the House Down)
Such a thought-provoking, sexy, immersive read... a sun-soaked love letter to complicated women and female artists (Cesca Major, author of Maybe Next Time and If I Were You)
A gorgeous, sultry novel about the push and pull of desire, and an artist living in a world that asks too much of a woman (Szilvia Molnar, author of The Nursery)
Emotionally precise and devastating, hopeful and singular (Lucia Osborne-Crowley, author of The Lasting Harm)
Clever, tense, erotic, with a deftness of touch that packs a feminist punch (Jessica Cornwell, author of Birth Notes)
Positively thrums with tension. Erotic, sensuous and eviscerating (Lori Inglis Hall, author of The Shock of the Light)
A deeply enjoyable, compelling, and moving meditation on womanhood, desire, and the impulse to create. Rhiannon Lucy Cosslett's glistening prose is a delight (Elinor Cleghorn, author of Unwell Women)
What a sharp, beautiful meditation on the female body. This is a quietly stunning novel that I think will have an enduring impact on its readers (Emily Howes, author of The Painter's Daughters)
