Its final pages had me holding my breath’ NEW YORK TIMES‘Hila Blum is my new favourite writer’ LOUISE KENNEDY-------------------------------------------What damage do we do in the blindness of love?Thousands of miles from her home, a woman stands on a dark street, peeking through well-lit windows at two little girls. They are the daughters of her only daughter, the grandchildren she’s never met.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAt the centre of this mesmerising story is the woman’s quest to understand how a relationship that began in bliss – a mother besotted with her only child – arrived at a point of such unfathomable distance. Weaving back and forth in time, she unravels memories and long-buried feelings, retracing the infinite acts of parental care, each so mundane and apparently benign, that together may have undermined what she most treasured.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWith exquisite psychological precision, Blum traces the seemingly insignificant missteps and deceptions of family life, where it’s possible to cross the line between protectiveness and possession without even seeing it – and it’s uncertain whether, or how, we can find our way back.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e-------------------------------------------'When I read this book, I felt ... that a new and wonderful occurrence has transpired in Israeli literature' Neri Livne, Haaretz\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Far From The Madding Crowd","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45616143859971,"sku":"9781526662477","price":9.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0404\/3207\/4914\/files\/9781526662477_9d8e4e9d-10be-4b96-ac32-965af8fd4efd.jpg?v=1731348632","url":"https:\/\/www.maddingcrowdlinlithgow.live\/products\/9781526662477","provider":"Far From The Madding Crowd","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
