General Fiction

An intensely compulsive, beautifully vivid human story about the ripple effects of one dramatic moment and the chain of events it starts on four young people's lives - which fans of Emily John St. Mandel, Sally Rooney, Patricia Lockwood and The Power will be similarly obsessed by.

DO YOU FEEL NOTHING? OR DO YOU FEEL EVERYTHING?

It all began at a wedding. A smile across the room. A moment of lust. A separation long overdue. Then a woman sat down . . . and never stood up again. Suddenly hundreds, then thousands of people are sitting down. Is it a sickness - or are they simply giving up? In the search for love, or happiness, or anything at all, is living a choice? Or is it just something that happens to us?
