The Weekend by Charlotte Wood is acerbic brilliance . . . It is so great I am struggling to find the words to do it justice . . . Wood is an agonisingly gifted writer, so great at capturing micro-emotions, the complexity of friendship, love, mother-child tension, all done with breezy readability. At times it's funny, thought-provoking, very moving. I care so much about the characters. I am now going to read all her other books!
