Set in the late 1980s, Patrick Gale's early novel is a charming, funny story of love and life teetering towards the edge

'Richly comic, affectionate and perceptive' Mail on Sunday
Eight years ago, Robin fled from his family, friends, and entire life, to suffer a complete breakdown in an island monastery. Now he's returning to London and reconnecting with those he left behind: his mother and father, with their own small secrets, and Jake and Candida.

But while the people he abandoned have missed him, Robin finds that everything has changed. He alone can decide what he will do in this new world of resentment, possibility and triumphant love.
