THE WEEKEND - CHARLOTTE WOOD KARTONIERT (TB)

Charlotte Wood zooms in and makes these women increasingly sympathetic and individual in a way
that really pulls on the heartstrings of the reader' Mariella Frostrup 'What a terrific novel
this is  I have enjoyed it enormously' Simon Mayo 'A lovely  lively  intelligent  funny book'
Tessa Hadley 'Sharp  funny  heartbreaking and gorgeously-written  I loved it' Paula Hawkins
'One of those deceptively compact novels that continues to open doors in your mind long after
the last page' Patrick Gale 'Unsparing observations and total lack of sentimentality' Eimear
McBride Sylvie  Jude  Wendy and Adele have a lifelong friendship of the best kind  but when
Sylvie dies  the ground shifts dangerously for the remaining three  These women couldn't be
more different: Jude  a restaurateur with a long-standing affair with a married man  Wendy  an
acclaimed feminist intellectual  Adele  a former star of the stage  Struggling to recall
exactly why they've remained close all these years  the grieving women gather for one last
weekend at Sylvie's old beach house - not for a celebration of her life  but to clean the place
out before it is sold  But amid the ruins of their relationship there are glimpses of the
affection that has kept them together for years - and when disaster strikes their friendship
will be the only thing keeping them alive
