Summary
ONE OF STYLIST'S BEST NEW BOOKS FOR 2020
Meet the Ramdin-Chetan family: forged through loneliness, broken by secrets, saved by love.
Irrepressible Betty Ramdin, her shy son Solo and their marvellous lodger, Mr Chetan, form an unconventional household, happy in their differences, as they build a home together. Home: the place where your navel string is buried, keeping these three safe from an increasingly dangerous world. Happy and loving they are, until the night when a glass of rum, a heart to heart and a terrible truth explodes the family unit, driving them apart.
Brave and brilliant, steeped in affection, Love After Love asks us to consider what happens at the very brink of human forgiveness, and offers hope to anyone who has loved and lost and has yet to find their way back.

One that will stay with me.
One of those stories that takes you into another world and leaves you feeling you were part of it. Wonderful.

Wow, this rocked my world.
I am a mixed Anglo-trini. The voice of this book felt like home, but the content.... that cut me deep. It’s disturbing, loving, heartbreaking and wonderful.

What a beautiful book
Not sure I can describe how much I enjoyed this book. I really didn’t want to get to the end. Beautifully written and very well read by the author (not a common occurrence!). Unless you have a heart of stone you will be moved and possibly changed by the experience of reading it.

So glad I gave this a listen
Not my normal listen, but so glad I did. I’m a 34 year old man who cried 3 times at the end of this book. Loved it. Thank you

Best book in ages!
Wonderful book and story. Very well narrated by the author herself. Feeling so emotional after finishing it but thoroughly enjoyed the way it was told.

incredible voice
I am so glad I listened to this rather than reading it, it is a refreshing perspective and the accent/vocabulary/tones/descriptions transported me to another world.
