Vida is capable of taking the breath away with her cool treatment of the unkind twists of one woman's fate.' Scotland on Sunday 'Thoughtful and evocative... I defy any reader not to cry at the ending' Observer 'Excellent... A moving work on the tumbling, overwhelming emotions.' Independent 'A stingingly acute portrait of grief, a moving meditation on love and a page-turning adventure.' Zoe Heller 'Masterful... I was so enthralled by the grief, the sticky and sandy details... that I didn't realize how deep in I was. I read the last page with a tearful gasp. * Miranda July *
'I missed a train stop twice on the same journey while reading it. That's how distractingly good it is.' -- Viv Groskop, Independent on Sunday Yvonne is newly widowed, her children grown. Hoping to revisit memories of a happier time, she travels to Turkey. Despite the sand and sea, Yvonne's memories of her past are overwhelming and she clings to a newfound friendship with Ahmet, a local boy who makes his living as a shell collector. With Ahmet as her guide, Yvonne finally begins to enjoy the shimmering waters and relaxed pace of the Turkish coast. But when a devastating accident suddenly upends her hard-won peace, she finds her life thrown into chaos and with it her fragile sense of belonging.
