Produktbeschreibung

Love can change your life. Can it survive marriage and middle age?

'Wonderfully wise, moving and heartfelt' WILLIAM BOYD

'A tender love story' DAILY TELEGRAPH

*LONGLISTED FOR THE DUBLIN LITERARY AWARD 2025*

Lily falls in love with Sam the minute she sets eyes on him. It takes Sam a day or two longer. Curious, because Lily has never quite believed in love, while Sam thought he understood it inside out.

Lily, a documentary maker, and Sam, a playwright, are both in relationships that have quietly expired, and an affair takes hold that they are powerless to resist.

Arriving in mid-life, their relationship opens unexpected new worlds. But what will happen to them when familiarity and age begin to take their toll? What will survive?
