Reseña del editor
Cassie and Rona. Rona and Cassie. Two women on a driving holiday in Northern France; colleagues on the cusp of forty, trying to get on. Cassie Burns, the narrator, is testy and cynical in the face of her patient, parochial friend - the Virgin of her Dante - who is driving her not only up the wall and into Normandy but also towards what can only be called ' an understanding' - of exactly how much of what surround her is not 'her place'. This is a novel of Diocalm and travel kettles, boiled sweets and sandwiches, pasties and postcards; a threnody for youth and men intercut with photographs and memories from Cassie's ghastly sexual past, and a sheaf of letters from Rona's grandfather written in the trenches of the Somme. A caustic, coruscating and deeply funny account of mortality, dysfunctional relationships and women abroad. FOREIGN PARTS is that rare hybrid; a striking original novel about real life, told with accuracy, compassion and a truly saturnine delight.
