Über diesen Titel

Longlisted for the Orange Prize for Fiction, 2007.
Shortlisted for the British Book Awards, Richard and Judy Best Read, 2007.
A Richard and Judy Book Club selection.

In 29 years, Rose Darlen has never spent a moment apart from her twin sister, Ruby. She has never gone for a solitary walk or had a private conversation. Yet, in all that time, she has never once looked into Ruby's eyes. Joined at the head, "The Girls" (as they are known in their small town) attempt to lead a normal life, but can't help being extraordinary. Now almost 30, Rose and Ruby are on the verge of becoming the oldest living craniopagus twins in history, but they are remarkable for a lot more than their unusual sisterly bond.

Kritikerstimmen


"This unusual novel is so satisfying...a graceful meditation on partnership identity and enduring love." (The Times)

"Perfectly pitched...an utterly heartwarming tale, without any traces of mawkishness. Anyone with a sister will relate to this." (Marie Claire)

"This incredible story seems real because of the outstanding characterizations." (AudioFile)
