Description
Loved and Missed is a powerful and poignant novel about the transformative power of love. When a mother takes on the care of her granddaughter after her daughter's struggles with addiction, she is forced to confront her own limitations and the complexities of their relationship.
The bond that forms between them is a source of both comfort and tension, as Ruth struggles to balance her desire to nurture and protect with the need to give her daughter space to heal. As the story unfolds, Ruth finds herself drawn into a new and unfamiliar world of love and connection, one that challenges everything she thought she knew about herself and her place in the world.
This whip-smart and incisive novel is a triumph of storytelling, offering a nuanced and deeply human exploration of love's gains and missteps. Susie Boyt's writing is both warm and sharp-witted, making this a compelling and unforgettable read.
