'Funny and dark. Tender and tough. Uncanny and relatable.' Erin Kelly 'Deeply moving, simultaneously delicate yet hard-hitting' Claire Kilroy 'Blends comedy, drama and heartbreak' John Boyne 'A really clever novel' Cecelia Ahern ______________________________________________________________ On an ordinary morning in an ordinary house, a woman discovers a secret her husband has been keeping. It is a secret that explodes their marriage. As Dolores grapples with her new reality, she unwillingly delves into her past to work out how she got here, unpicking the seams of the relationships that have built her. She's a sister, a daughter, a wife, a teacher. How much does her past have to influence her present? Can't she just forgive and forget? And most importantly: what is a woman for, anyway? _____________________________________________________________ 'Bleak, but also hilarious ... Crossan's deadpan style is bone dry' Daily Mail 'A singular writer with her own style and conviction' Irish Times 'Inventive, astute and funny' Observer 'A roller-coaster read' i 'Dark humour ... offbeat tenderness ... plenty to say about contemporary intimacy' Mail on Sunday
