Celebrated author Joanne Limburg's moving account of her brother's suicide. Touching on religion, family, art and science.

The suicide of Joanne Limburg's beloved brother Julian left her shattered. When her mother dies too, Joanne pulls herself from the depths of grief by embarking on a journey of salvage, collecting up those scattered fragments of memory from her childhood. With love, wit and wisdom, she begins piecing together a bright mosaic of a brother that left her behind, and of a family coloured by the conflicting influences of literature, science and religion.

Joanne Limburg was born and grew up in London, at the northern end of the Jubilee Line, but now lives in Cambridge with her husband and son. She has published several collections of poetry; The Woman Who Thought Too Much, a memoir about OCD, anxiety and poetry; and the novel A Want of Kindness which was longlisted for the HWA debut novel award 2016.
