This month, we’re giving our wonderful MoM’s the chance to take some ‘me’ time and curl up with a good book. 31 lucky winners will receive a copy of From Where I Fell, the latest novel by Susan Johnson, a warm and heartbreakingly honest accidental friendship between two women from opposite ends of the earth, thanks to our friends at Allen & Unwin.
‘In a strikingly original reimagining of an epistolary novel, Susan Johnson creates two voices that echo and reverberate long after the final, heart-wrenching pages. Her best yet.’ GERALDINE BROOKS
‘…a masterstroke of emotional intuition and intelligence.’ The Australian
An anguished email from Pamela Robinson in Australia to her ex-husband in Paris accidentally ends up in the inbox of New York State teacher Chrisanthi Woods. Chrisanthi is sympathetic to Pamela’s struggles and the women begin to tell each other the stories and secrets of their lives.
Pamela, responsible for raising her three sons, must re-invent the meaning of home following her divorce, and Chrisanthi, her dreams long dampened, must find home by leaving it. Temperamental opposites, their emails turn into an exhilarating and provocative exchange of love, loss and fresh beginnings, by turns amusing, frank and confronting.
A Masterpiece!
‘Witty, warm, heartbreaking and honest – an audacious masterpiece from one of Australia’s best writers.’ NIKKI GEMMELL
‘Few novelists working today can match Susan Johnson’s uncanny ability to map both the joys and horrors of the human heart and to wrestle the ebb and flow of life to the page. From Where I Fell teems with regret, eruptions of joy, the complexities of motherhood, the power of memory, the pain of divorce and dashed and gained dreams.’ MATTHEW CONDON
From Where I Fell is available online and in bookstores now!
