Life Begins by Amanda Brookfield
If Life Begins at Forty, then Charlotte Turner's not off to the best of starts. On top of a recent divorce, and trouble with her twelve-year-old son, the husband of her closest friend has just started to show a bit too much interest in her as a newly-single woman. Is life, for Charlotte, about to begin at last...?
Through her characters, Brookfield skillfully illuminates the relationship9s, dilemmas and compromises that define so many lives * Sunday Express *
Few contemporary British novelists writing today explore the messy tangles of close human relationships with quite such warm perceptiveness as Brookfield * Daily Mirror *
What is refreshing here is the author's conspicuous sanity and her sharp line in defence of reason.. It could be sentimental, but it isn't * Guardian *
