Description

'You really must read this book. A rare and phenomenal life affirming read' DINAH JEFFERIES'Get ready to fall in love with Eadie Browne, the eponymous and eccentric heroine of this tender-hearted, steeped-in-nostalgia story about chosen family' REDWhen your present meets your past, what do you take with you - and what do you leave behind?Eadie Browne is a quirky kid living in a small town where nothing much happens.

Bullied at school, she muddles her way through the teenage years with best friends Celeste and Josh until University takes them their separate ways. Arriving in Manchester as a student in the late 1980s, Eadie experiences a novel freedom and it's intoxicating.

As the city embraces the dizzying euphoria of Rave counterculture, Eadie is swept along, ignoring danger and reality.

Until, one night, her past comes hurtling at her with consequences she could never have imagined. Now, as the new millennium approaches, Eadie is thirty with a marriage in tatters, travelling back to the town of her birth for a funeral she can't quite comprehend.

As she journeys from the North to the South, from the present to the past, Eadie contemplates all that was then and all that is now - and the loose ends that must be tied before her future can unfold. 'A delightful dose of nostalgia' HEAT'A beautifully written tale about growing up, letting go and moving on' SUN'A gorgeous, heartfelt, atmospheric novel by a wonderful storyteller' LUCY ATKINS'A beautifully moving portrait of youth, friendship and love . . . I loved it' MIKE GAYLE'Beautifully written, funny and wise . . . heart-breaking and heart-warming' ALEXANDRA POTTER
