Description

With two failed marriages, a fractured thumb, a mother who didn’t want her to be a daughter, a daughter who didn’t want her to be a mother and a lover who doesn’t care one way or another, the narrator of these poems moves home two hundred and fifty miles from north to south, seeking peace.

She treats herself to a year out, an adult gap year. An arrested teenager who believes in serial monogamy, we follow her spiritual trail as she takes a Mediterranean cruise to the Middle East and travels by sports car to Oxford, France and London with a stranger - an American with whom she has hitherto only been in an epistolary relationship. Her equilibrium is temporarily interrupted by a sick sister who arrives on her doorstep and a return visit to Manchester, before together they set off on an adventure into India.

Hannah’s reflections and resolution are related with searing honesty, satirical wit and a sexual explicitness.
