Description

The groundbreaking debut novel from the bestselling author of HAMNET and THE MARRIAGE PORTRAIT: one of the most extraordinary love stories you'll ever read.

*Over 480,000 copies sold*

'This devastatingly skilful love story will break your heart!' Alice Winn

'Gripping. Superbly moving' Ali Smith

'Such a visceral, heartrending read about grief and love' Claire Daverley

A distraught young woman boards a train at King's Cross to return to her family in Scotland. Six hours later, she catches sight of something so terrible in a mirror at Waverley Station that she gets on the next train back to London.

AFTER YOU'D GONE follows Alice's mental journey through her own past, after a traffic accident has left her in a coma. A love story that is also a story of absence, and of how our choices can reverberate through the generations, it slowly draws us closer to a dark secret at a family's heart.

'Remarkable. Luminous' Observer

'Deeply moving' The Times

'An amazing study of love and grief as it poses the wrenching question: What do you do with all the love you have for someone when they're gone?' Glamour
