SHORTLISTED FOR THE WOMEN'S PRIZE FOR FICTION. Everyone tells Martha Friel she is clever and beautiful, a brilliant writer loved every day by her husband Patrick. Yet, as she approaches 40, Martha finds herself friendless, nearly jobless, and often sad. After Patrick leaves, she questions why everything feels broken in her life. Is it her sensitivity or a deeper issue stemming from a traumatic event at 17 that left her forever changed? Returning to her chaotic childhood home to live with her dysfunctional parents—without the support of her outspoken sister Ingrid—Martha confronts her past and seeks to understand if a life can be too broken to mend. This novel is a poignant exploration of resilience, humor, and the quest for self-discovery, filled with snappy one-liners and emotional depth. Critics have hailed it as unforgettable, brilliantly written, and a must-read for women, capturing the essence of laughter and heartbreak. An instant bestseller and a book of the year across multiple publications, it resonates with anyone seeking to rewrite their own narrative.
