Download or read book Saltwater written by Jessica Andrews and published by Macmillan + ORM. This book was released on 2020-01-14 with total page 279 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A Best Book of 2020: Open Letters Review "Andrews’s writing is transportingly voluptuous, conjuring tastes and smells and sounds like her literary godmother, Edna O’Brien . . . What makes her novel sing is its universal themes: how a young woman tries to make sense of her world, and how she grows up." –Penelope Green, The New York Times Book Review This “luminous” (TheObserver) feminist coming-of-age novel captures in sensuous, blistering prose the richness and imperfection of the bond between a daughter and her mother It begins with our bodies . . . Safe together in the violet dark and yet already there are spaces beginning to open between us. From that first immaculate, fluid connection, through the ups and downs of a working-class childhood in northern England, the one constant in Lucy’s life has been her mother: comforting and mysterious, ferociously loving, tirelessly devoted, as much a part of Lucy as her own skin. Her mother's lessons in womanhood shape Lucy’s appreciation for desire, her sense of duty as a caretaker, her hunger for a better, perhaps reckless life. At university in glamorous London, Lucy’s background sets her apart. And then she is finished, graduated, adrift. She escapes to a tiny house in Donegal left empty by her grandfather, a place where her mother once found happiness. There she will take a lover, live inside art and the past, and track back through her memories and her mother’s stories to make sense of her place in the world. In “a stunning new voice in British literary fiction” (The Independent) that lays bare our raw, dark selves, Jessica Andrews’s debut honors the richness and imperfection of the bond between a daughter and her mother. Intricately woven in lyrical vignettes, Saltwater is a novel of becoming-- a woman, an artist-- and of finding a way forward by looking back.

Book excerpt: Three best friends who drifted apart. One epic summer trip to reunite them. No one expected vibrant, fun-loving Justine Emerald to pass away at fifty – least of all her three high school best friends. Their shock is compounded when they return home for her memorial and hear the request in Justine’s last will and testament: to take one last trip together to spread her ashes. Valerie, the most outgoing of the bunch, is all for it. Her once-promising country pop career died in the 90’s, and she has all the time in the world. Lisa is easily convinced, having just lost her job in less-than-ideal circumstances that she’d like to keep private. It’s Michelle who has the most doubts – she’s wary of spending so much time with her old friends, especially when dramatic Valerie is convinced Justine’s ex-husband had something to do with her death. Nothing ignites the bonds of sisterhood like a little scheming, though, and it’s not long before Valerie gets the group into some hot water. Will white sand beaches, five-star hotels and a hefty dose of mischief be enough to bring the old friends back together, or will Justine’s last gift to them be in vain? The Summer Request, a standalone women’s fiction novel, is the perfect beach read to pair with a tropical drink and a tiny umbrella.
