'Original, memorable, shimmering' - Sarah Moss

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 hopes: for more time, for more love, for more Iris.

Dancing between voices within Lia's body and without, flitting back and forth in time, this sweeping, dazzling story of a life and what it is to let go marks the arrival of an extraordinary novelist.

'Restlessly inventive . . . delicate and persuasive' - The Guardian
'Extraordinary, kaleidoscopic' - Daisy Johnson
