Description
Returning to the derelict port of Liverpool, Alix—arrogant, middle-aged, and bristling with anger—finds her mother dying and her carefully managed life collapsing around her. In the midst of grief and resignation, two strangers drawn by what they can’t outrun cross paths, each carrying the weight of earlier battles and unfinished losses. As their lives intersect, the novel asks whether survival is simply endurance—or whether it can become something like connection, choice, and renewal. With Linda Grant’s sharp emotional realism and unflinching attention to memory, the story explores love and estrangement, the long shadow of the past, and what it means to be “still here” when everything else has changed.
