About this listen

The astonishing debut novel from international number one bestselling author Paullina Simons

Tully Makker is a tough young woman from the wrong side of the tracks and she is not always easy to like. But if Tully gives friendship and loyalty, she gives them for good, and she forms an enduring bond with Jennifer and Julie, schoolfriends from very different backgrounds.

As they grow into the world of the seventies and eighties, the lives of the three best friends are changed forever by two young men, Robin and Jack, and a tragedy which engulfs them all.

Against the odds, Tully emerges into young womanhood, marriage, and a career. At last Tully Makker has life under control. And then life strikes back in the most unexpected way of all . . .

Childhood Trauma

One of my favourite books. Yes, it has some dark moments, but it's so well written with a realistic, complex protagonist. A great listen.

Powerful and Moving

P.S. knows how to write. Her characters are well developed and complex, her desctiptions od the people inner states are detailed and unforgiving. But as I was going further, this book and this sad sad story that gives no hope at all, just made me feel bad and depressed myself. I wouldnt recommend if youre emotionally low or depressed. Very heavy novel.

so depressing, i just couldnt go on
