Critic reviews

Poignant . . . short on self-pity, but big on compassion and supremely big-hearted. It is a generous and important addition to an expanding shelf of therapeutic memoirs that help us blunder through modern life. (The Sunday Times)
The perfect choice for anyone keen. . . to make sense of any recent emotional upheaval (Laura Barnett)
A tender appreciation of life’s beauty (Matt Haig)
