The Rules of Seeing by Joe Heap

Winner of the Debut Romantic Novel of the Year Award 2019 When you make eye contact, when you hold someone's gaze, it’s the closest thing to knowing you're not alone in the world. ‘This year’s Eleanor Oliphant’ Claire Allan ‘Astonishing’ Ruth Hogan ‘Strikingly brilliant’ Sun ‘An exceptional book’ Dundee Courier After 32 years of living her life in the dark, Jillian Safinova – Nova to everyone, except her mother – is learning to see. She can see that the sky is blue. And green. And grey. And a whole spectrum of colours, as changeable as her mood. She can see that clouds are surprisingly solid. And she can that Kate, a woman she’s only just met, is going to change her life forever.

‘Extraordinary – a compelling, enlightening story with dark shadows and hope at its heart. It’s a book that reveals the world in a different light and changes the way you see it. So fresh, so original and so vivid, I loved it!’ Sunday Times bestseller, Miranda Dickinson
