Have The Men Had Enough?

What do men run away from? Not war, not physical hardship, but the day-to-day emotional demands of impossible domestic situations. That's women's work. This is a story of female courage, where black comedy turns to disturbing pathos revolving around the rights of an indomitable woman

Reviews

  • "A moving story, a condemnation of the way we treat our old friends and loves, a rage against the dying of the light"

    Philip Howard, The Times

  • "A novel painfully full of feeling, and totally credible-the passion shines through"

    Isabel Quigly, Financial Times

  • "A memorably touching story about the pressures on a family trying to do their best... A wonderfully accurate, powerful and even funny portrait"

    Graham Lord, Sunday Express

  • "It is close to life in a way we hardly expect a novel to be, and finally very moving"

    Hilary Mantel, Daily Telegraph

  • "An extremely skilful and angry novel...beautifully written"
