SORROW AND BLISS - MEG MASON KARTONIERT (TB)

THE INSTANT SUNDAY TIMES BESTSELLER  'Both fantastically dark and almost unbearably funny...
Just read it. It's unforgettable' India Knight  The Sunday Times  'It is impossible to read
this novel and not be moved. It is also impossible not to laugh out loud... Mason pulls off
something extraordinary in this huge-hearted novel'  Clare Clark  Guardian  'Summer's must-read
novel' Stylist  'Utterly compelling and darkly funny: the book you have to read this summer'
Evening Standard  'A raucously funny  beautifully written  emotion-bashing book' The Times  'I
was making a list of all the people I wanted to send it to  until I realised that I wanted to
send it to everyone I know' Ann Patchett  author of The Dutch House  'A masterclass on family 
damage and the bonds of love' Jessie Burton  author of The Confession  'Patrick Melrose meets
Fleabag. Brilliant' Clare Chambers  author of Small Pleasures  Everyone tells Martha Friel she
is clever and beautiful  a brilliant writer who has been loved every day of her adult life by
one man  her husband Patrick.  So why is everything broken? Why is Martha - on the edge of 40 -
friendless  practically jobless and so often sad? And why did Patrick decide to leave?  Maybe
she is just too sensitive  someone who finds it harder to be alive than most people. Or maybe -
as she has long believed - there is something wrong with her. Something that broke when a
little bomb went off in her brain  at 17  and left her changed in a way that no doctor or
therapist has ever been able to explain.  Forced to return to her childhood home to live with
her dysfunctional  bohemian parents (but without the help of her devoted  foul-mouthed sister
Ingrid)  Martha has one last chance to find out whether a life is ever too broken to fix - or
whether  maybe  by starting over  she will get to write a better ending for herself.
