Produktbeschreibung

'I suppose not everyone is bewildered the day their marriage ends . . .'

It looks like just another week ahead. Then out of the blue, over lunch, Ramble's husband declares their marriage defunct, and disappears.

With no rent money and her world in shreds, she is forced to reconsider everything she's ever learned from her screwy relatives, unreliable friends and wayward criminal connections. Should she hide in life's slipstream, or has the moment come to break free?

'Gowers's writing is absolutely beautiful.' The Times

'At once subtle and absurdist.' Daily Mail

'Unforgettable.' Scotland on Sunday

'A moving, compassionate portrait of a woman in crisis.' Herald

'A beautifully written and brilliantly original comedy, blacker than coal and crafted with the delicate precision of a lace-maker.' Metro
