First Love - Paperback
by Gwendoline Riley (Author)
A raw and engrossing portrait of familial and marital dysfunction by "one of Britain's most original young writers" (The Observer).
Neve is a writer in her mid-thirties married to an older man, Edwyn. For now they are in a place of relative peace, but their past battles have left scars. As Neve recalls the decisions that led her to this marriage, she tells of other loves and other debts, from her bullying father and her self-involved mother to a musician who played her and a series of lonely flights from place to place.
