Produktbeschreibung

Open Wide will quite literally get under your skin - a weird, electrifyingly original love story about the mad, troubling and vulnerable things we do to get close to others

'Will leave you questioning the boundaries we draw around those we love' CHELSEA BIEKER
'Unputdownable' MARIE-HELENE BERTINO
'Smart, unsettling, sexy and hilarious' CLARE BEAMS
'Obsessed' Mirror

Olive is desperate to get close to Theo - really, really close.

Despite being a radio host, she's always struggled to connect with people. And now she's in her thirties, single, and so flustered by relationships that she secretly records her conversations, hoping to decipher social clues and find a way to be less alone.

Then Theo turns up for a shift at the food pantry where she volunteers. He's a surgeon fascinated by human organs, a former football player, and possibly as weird as Olive. For the first time, someone seems to crave and understand her.

Every recording Olive makes of Theo is a balm - which just makes her more afraid of losing him. The only solution seems to be to bind him to her forever. Luckily, the gap between Theo's front teeth is just wide enough for something - or someone - to slip inside.
