The brilliant debut novel from Emilie Pine, author of the international bestseller NOTES TO SELFbr>br>Dublin, 7 October 2019br>br>One day, one city, two women: Ruth and Pen. Neither known to the other, but both asking themselves the same questions: how to be with others and how, when the world doesn''t seem willing to make space for them, to be with themselves?br>br>Ruth''s marriage to Aidan is in crisis. Today she needs to make a choice - to stay or not to stay, to take the risk of reaching out, or to pull up the drawbridge.br>br>For teenage Pen, today is the day the words will flow, and she will speak her truth to Alice, to ask for what she so desperately wants.br>br>Deeply involving, poignant and radiantly intelligent, it is a portrait of the limits of grief and love, of how we navigate our inner and outer landscapes, and the tender courage demanded by the simple, daily quest of living.>
