by Rachel Elliott (Author)
A novel of love, homelessness, and learning to be fearless
In the garden, there were three flamingos. Not real flamingos, but real emblems, real gateways to a time when life was impossibly good. They were mascots, symbols of hope. Something for a boy to confide in. First, there were the flamingos. And then there were two families. Sherry and Leslie and their daughters, Rae and Pauline - and Eve and her son Daniel. Sherry loves her husband, Leslie. She also loves Eve. It couldn't have been a happier summer. But then Eve left and everything went grey. Now Daniel is all grown-up and broken. And when he turns up at Sherry's door, it's almost as if they've all come home again. But there's still one missing. Where is Eve? And what, exactly, is her story? FLAMINGO is a novel about the power of love, welcome and acceptance. It's a celebration of kindness, of tenderness. Set in 2018 and the 80s, it's a song for the broken-hearted and the big-hearted, and is, ultimately, a novel grown from gratitude, and a book full of wild hope. Readers love Flamingo: 'A world of characters you feel you know and care about . . . The writing is superb and often stopped me in my tracks' ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ 'This novel grabs you by the heart and doesn't let go' ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ 'I loved this book - the writing is beautiful, it's emotive and the attention to connections, humanity and nature is wonderful' ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐Back Jacket
