LONGLISTED FOR THE WOMEN'S PRIZE FOR FICTION THE BOOK EVERYONE IS TALKING ABOUT 'Just read it. It's unforgettable' India Knight; The Sunday Times 'It is impossible to read this novel and not be moved. It is also impossible not to laugh out loud... Extraordinary' Guardian 'Full of snappy one-liners but; at the same time; remarkably poignant' Craig Brown 'Probably the best book you'll read this year' Mail on Sunday 'Completely brilliant. I think every girl and woman should read it' Gillian Anderson 'Exactly the book to read right now; when you need a laugh; but want to cry' Observer 'The most wonderful; heartbreakingly gorgeous novel of the year' Elizabeth Day; author of Magpie 'A raucously funny; beautifully written; emotion-bashing book' The Times 'I was making a list of all the people I wanted to send it to; until I realised that I wanted to send it to everyone I know' Ann Patchett; author of The Dutch House 'One of those read it in one sitting and tell all your friends kind of books' Evening Standard 'Patrick Melrose meets Fleabag. Brilliant' Clare Chambers; author of Small Pleasures Everyone tells Martha Friel she is clever and beautiful; a brilliant writer who has been loved every day of her adult life by one man; her husband Patrick. A gift; her mother once said; not everybody gets. So why is everything broken? Why is Martha - on the edge of 40 - friendless; practically jobless and so often sad? And why did Patrick decide to leave? Maybe she is just too sensitive; someone who finds it harder to be alive than most people. Or maybe - as she has long believed - there is something wrong with her. Something that broke when a little bomb went off in her brain; at 17; and left her changed in a way that no doctor or therapist has ever been able to explain. Forced to return to her childhood home to live with her dysfunctional; bohemian parents (but without the help of her devoted; foul-mouthed sister Ingrid); Martha has one last chance to find out whether a life is ever too broken to fix - or whether; maybe; by starting over; she will get to write a better ending for herself.
