Description
Twelve Months and a Day by Louisa Young is a poignant love story about two couples who lose their partners to death. Jay and Nico, Rasmus and Roísín - ordinary people whose lives are forever changed when they are left alone. As they navigate the complexities of grief, they find themselves inexplicably drawn to each other, unable to shake off the memories of those they lost. Their stories are intertwined in unexpected ways, as they both struggle to come to terms with their new reality. Jay tries to play matchmaker, while Nico is consumed by jealousy and longing. Rasmus and Roísín are left to pick up the pieces of their shattered lives, searching for a way to heal and move forward. This beautifully written novel explores the power of love to transcend even death itself, and the ways in which it can both haunt and comfort us.
