The intense and breathtakingly accomplished novel from the bestselling author of HAMNET and THE MARRIAGE PORTRAIT *440,000 copies sold* 'Seductive in style, prickly, disturbing and delicious' Olivia Laing _____ Edinburgh in the 1930s. The Lennox family is having trouble with its youngest daughter. Esme is outspoken, unconventional, and repeatedly embarrasses them in polite society. Something will have to be done. Years later, a young woman named Iris Lockhart receives a letter informing her that she has a great-aunt in a psychiatric unit who is about to be released. Iris has never heard of Esme Lennox and the one person who should know more, her grandmother Kitty, seems unable to answer Iris's questions. What could Esme have done to warrant a lifetime in an institution? And how is it possible for a person to be so completely erased from a family's history? _____ 'Actually unputdownable' Ali Smith 'Compulsively readable' Daily Telegraph 'O'Farrell's subtlety and delicate touch have never been so finely demonstrated' Independent on Sunday _____ ? What readers are saying; ? 'A gripping page turner and easily the best book i've read this year' ? ? ? ? ? 'Truly stunning... the way she writes is just exquisite' ? ? ? ? ? 'I wanted it to go on and on' ? ? ? ? ?
