    About this ebook

    This groundbreaking novel, set in the affluent London suburb of Blackheath, tells the tumultuous story of two couples whose lives overlap with shocking consequences. Holding a mirror up to contemporary gender politics and exposing the flaws and failures of so-called equal parenting, this moving and sharply comic tale of life-after-children reveals the awful truth at the heart of modern family life: love is not enough.
