Sometimes, the greatest happiness begins quietly-with a packed lunch.When Marlene Dixon starts her new job as a primary school teacher, she doesn't expect that a quiet, slightly absent-minded colleague will change her life. Matthew Hopkins teaches at the same school and constantly forgets to eat, preferring to spend his break talking to the children rather than eating in the staff room. So she brings him something and eats with him.From small gestures come conversations. From conversations grows closeness. And from closeness, a gentle love that runs deeper than she ever imagined.Told in brief snapshots scattered over many days and years, this novel speaks of friendship that becomes family, of everyday life, joy and grief-and the kind of love that remains, even when it has to leave one day.A quiet, touching novel about happioness in the ordinary and the involuntary power of memory.
