Description
Catherine Ellis's life has crumbled without warning. Her boyfriend has fallen in love with someone else, her job is insecure, and she has a mouthful of unreliable teeth. Forced back to her childhood home, there is little comfort to be found. As the summer wears on, Ellis's world spins out of control. She's dogged by toothache, her ex won't compensate her for the flat, and somehow she's found herself stalking his new lover on Facebook. Amidst this chaos, Ellis must confront the fragility of her own identity. Will she find a way to reclaim her sense of self before it's too late? Lynsey May's novel is a warm and witty exploration of our hidden vulnerabilities, with a huge emotional punch that will leave you thinking long after you finish reading.
