6: 'Cyclonic, becoming rough or very rough'
Meg Mason's whipsmart and heartbreakingly tender novel about the highs and lows of modern love. Today: married life turns from bliss to sorrow...
Hailed as 'Patrick Melrose meets Fleabag', Meg Mason's achingly funny and heartbreakingly tender novel is one of the most talked-about novels of 2021.
Martha Friel is clever and beautiful, a woman who has been loved every day of her adult life by one man, her husband Patrick. So why is she - on the edge of 40 - friendless, practically jobless and broken? And why did Patrick decide to leave?
Now Martha, with the help of her devoted, wise-cracking sister and dysfunctional, bohemian parents, has one last chance to find out whether she can write a better ending for herself.
Today: married life turns from bliss to sorrow...
