'Alluring, shocking, welcome and wonderful' Lisa Taddeo, author of Three Women
From the author of Your Voice in My Head and Royals comes a beautiful, breath-taking, unputdownable memoir about love and heartbreak, sex and celibacy, growing up and starting again.
'A staggering piece of writing' Nigella Lawson
'It's woken me up' Minnie Driver, author of Managing Expectations
'The most delicious memoir that kept me in bed all day' Sophie Heawood, author of The Hungover Games
What happens when your story doesn't end the way you thought it would?
When the dream life you have been working towards becomes something you must walk away from?
When you swap a Hollywood marriage and a LA mansion with waterside views, for a little attic flat shared only with your daughter, beneath the star-filled sky of deepest North London?
When you find yourself not lonely, but elated - elated to be alone with yourself, who you genuinely thought you might never get to see again?
When, after a life guided by romantic obsession, you decide to turn your back not only on marriage, but all romantic and sexual attachments?
