Married Love by Tessa Hadley
Her fiance is Edgar Lennox, a composer of religious music and lecturer at Lottie's university, forty-five years her senior.It is a story of romantic dreams and daily reality, family loyalties tested but holding, and the comedy and solace to be found in small moments.
Few writers give me such consistent pleasure -- Zadie Smith
She has such great psychological insights into human beings, which is rareShe is one of the best fiction writers writing today -- Chimamanda Ngozie Adichie
The stories collected in Married Love tend to announced themselves with a crash ... before resolving into quieter reflections, like musical overtures in which strings follow brass. Whether it is in examining the mellowing of a marriage in the title piece, or recounting the progress of a one night stand ("In the Cave"), Hadley writes of ordinary lives with a gracefulness unequalled among her peers * Independent on Sunday *
Occasionally – very occasionally – a book feels like a gift, something unexpected, exhilarating, life-enhancing. Tessa Hadley’s second collection of short stories is such a book * The Times *
One of the most subtle and sublime contemporary writers * Vogue *
