The brilliant debut novel from Emilie Pine  author of the international bestseller Notes to
Self   Dublin  7 October 2019  One day  one city  two women: Ruth and Pen. Neither knows the

won't make space for you  to be with yourself?  Ruth's marriage to Aidan is in crisis. Today

living.   'Emilie Pine is one of the most important new voices in Irish Literature. Everything

is ambitious and relevant' Irish Independent    'This is an exciting  warm and engaging debut
that signals  one hopes  even greater things to come' The Business Post   WINNER OF THE KATE
