Opis

A luminous, startlingly beautiful novel about the complications of family relationships by an acclaimed novelist drawing comparisons with Ali Smith, Tessa Hadley, and Anne EnrightAnita Mostyn feels the need to take a vacation from her life. As a child, she was dismissed by her parents in favor of her more confident brothers, and as an adult, her choices are disapproved of--the small art gallery she works for, the friends she makes, the men she sees. On a whim, she takes up an offer to scout for holiday properties in Bulgaria, escaping the impending second wedding of her perfect brother. But as Anita navigates these difficult waters, a horrifying episode in her past--the thing she has really been trying to escape--comes back to haunt her.
