Since her mother’s death, Lily has withdrawn from the world, trapped between grief and anger. She has to break out of this damaging cycle – but how? Upstairs, Siobhan is consumed by her affair with a married man. Her days revolve around his sporadic texts and rare visits. She barely notices the strange girl who lives below and dawdles in the foyer. But Lily is keeping a close eye on her neighbour, whose life seems so much better and more fulfilling than her own. When resentment evolves into something darker and more urgent, she decides to teach Siobhan a lesson… From the critically acclaimed author of Tennis Lessons comes a darkly powerful novel about two lives running closely in parallel but divided by gulfs of misunderstanding. With boundless wisdom and deep empathy, Dickey charts the anonymity and hidden intimacies of modern existence, and our profound human need to connect. ‘Sharp as tacks, extremely funny and deeply moving. This novel is very good company.’ JAN CARSON ‘A poignant, deft portrayal of love, obsession and grief’ STYLIST ‘Rich and absorbing . . . thrilling and engaging’ IRISH TIMES ‘[A]n unsettling, bewitching tale about loneliness, connection and obsession.’ EVENING STANDARD PRAISE FOR SUSANNAH DICKEY ‘I loved Tennis Lessons so much.
