A barbed, funny, painfully well observed study of contemporary relationships, centring on the love triangle between a wife, her husband, and his mobile phone.
*An Elle Summer Read 2023*
'Cocozza's writing is addictive... her sharp observations steal the show ' Joanna Cannon, Guardian
'Searing, perceptive, shattering' Observer
'Charming, very touching and very funny. Taut and full of surprises' Tessa Hadley
I shall explain about our marriage. We have a modern version of a long-distance relationship. We share a house, but live in different historical eras...
What happens in a relationship when your partner only has eyes for their new phone?
What happens when you lose a treasured possession - a hoard of love letters documenting a relationship that never really ended - and this loss becomes an obsession?
Speak to Me is the story of a woman's quest, in a world ruled by screens and devices, for a conversation that will unlock who she once was, and what she really wants now. Keenly observed, tender and sharply funny, this is a book about all the ways we say, and don't say, the things in our hearts.
