Description

Julia Kelly met a charismatic and successful artist, Charlie Whisker, while she was working on her first novel.

He was twenty years older than her. Their relationship was passionate and extraordinary; each of them inspired the other.

Their friends were writers, artists and rock stars; they lived a glamorous life of exhibitions, parties and concerts.

They became parents to a daughter they adored. But Charlie suddenly changed, becoming hopelessly forgetful, angry and confused.

This is an unbearably honest, unsentimental and heartbreaking description of a brilliant man's mental disintegration and its effects on his family.

Charlie's disturbing behaviour is described in a series of terrible, understated revelations.

An unforgettable telling of a story that will be familiar to many thousands of people in the UK and Ireland.
