At 60, are you young enough to try again? Maggie sets out from her English stately home for warmer climes, and younger arms to hold her.
‘Though she could not always match his youth, she could always enjoy it. It was like owning a kestrel. You could thrill to its flight without needing to fly yourself. It zoomed in and snatched morsels of meat from your hand.’
“I'm not sure how Martin Goodman has pulled this extraordinary novel off - so moving and so funny; so sharply acute and so generous hearted; so translucent and so intelligent; so honest and so hopeful. Should work for both sunny days and cold nights.” – Sara Maitland, author of The Book of Silence
