'Beautiful . . . insightful, fascinating and moving. It's a lovely LOVELY book' Marian Keyes
'This book made me cry' Sara Cox
After Emma Kennedy's mother Brenda passed away, she found herself floundering, unable to make sense of the mysterious, charismatic but unpredictable woman who had been her mum.
And then she found Brenda's letters, forgotten for years in the attic. As Emma made her way through decades of correspondence, she started to piece together the fractured relationships and buried secrets that had left their indelible mark on Brenda. Finally, she allowed herself to ask the question she couldn't as a child: who, really, was her mother?
'This honest, insightful book is a touching tribute to her complex, inimitable mother' Daily Express
'Remarkable' Dawn French
'A beautiful, hilarious and bittersweet book' Mel Giedroyc
