Description

A grim, disturbing novel of family drama and mental illness, yet a bizarrely funny glimpse into one woman’s mind. They are the 'healthy, strong, intelligent, spiritual and sexual” - beings who did everything: nurtured families, farms and businesses, dug graves, birthed babies, brought in harvests, staffed factories, led riots and held communities together…Gregory has the novelist’s eye for the quirky and the vivid; the wryness of a confident narrator.

Please Note: By their very nature, all signed books will have been handled several times before they get to you. Her fearlessness and utter lack of inhibition animate the desperate longing and bitter trauma at the heart of this ghost story, administered with a steady drip of comic relief. Dani’s new friends are wealthy and chic — with their cocktail brunches, athletic tights, affogatos, and momfluencer blogs — and while the details of Dani’s modern experience are different from my days as a stay-at-home mom, Hogarth absolutely captured the ambivalence of the situation; of feeling both gratitude and resentment; being both anchored and trapped. They rode in jousts, flew Spitfires, issued their own currency and built ships, corn mills and houses as part of their everyday lives They committed crimes, or treason, worshipped many gods, cooked and nursed, invented things and rioted. As a mother to a baby and a toddler, I found the depictions of motherhood and its struggles and ambivalences to be right on the mark.This may result in small marks to the dustjacket and title page, please also bear in mind that each signature will be a little different from the one we show here.

About 70% of the way through it actually started to get interesting and I was a lot more invested in the story again. And I don’t understand how anyone read this book and then read that ending and wasn’t like throw it out and redo it. In 2020 she was made a CBE in the Queen’s Birthday Honours for her services to literature and charity.It has a phenomenal girl math moment where the delulu girlies are going to get it right away: your husband‘s coworker has cancer, so you have to become a prostitute.
