Description
‘A beautiful novel’ New York Times
‘What a voice, what a story. I absolutely loved this. Funny and moving, tragic and hilarious’ Claire Fuller
Aleksy still remembers the last summer he spent with his mother in Northern France. At eighteen, eager to fly the nest and escape a family still grief-stricken by the death of his sister years earlier, these lazy months in the countryside are akin to torture. And then, his mother tells him she’s dying.
For fans of Claire Keegan, Gwendoline Riley and Elena Ferrante, this is a story of reconciliation, of three months in which mother and son finally lay down their weapons to make peace with each other and with themselves.
