Utterly heart-breaking yet darkly funny, Maddie Mortimer's debut is a symphonic journey through one woman's body: a celebration of desire, forgiveness, and the darkness within us all. 'Original, memorable, shimmering' - Sarah Moss, author of Ghost Wall Lia has only one child, Iris; her magical, awkward, endlessly creative daughter who has just entered the battleground of her teenage years. Lia and Iris have always been close, but there is a war playing out inside Lia's body, too, and everything is about to change. As she confronts what might be the end, memories of her own childhood and a passionate love affair come rushing into her present, unearthing buried secrets and her family's deepest fears. But Lia still has hope . . . for more time, for more love, for more Iris. The Sunday Times Book of the Year 'Restlessly inventive . . . delicate and persuasive' - The Guardian 'Extraordinary, kaleidoscopic' - Daisy Johnson, author of Everything, Under
