Synopsis

Amid the leafy avenues and comfortable houses, the residents of Arlington Park live out the dubious accomplishments of civilisation: material prosperity, personal freedom, and moral indifference. Men work, women look after children, and people generally do what's expected of them.

Set over the course of a single rainy day, this novel moves from one household to another, and through the passing hours conducts a deep examination of its characters' lives: of Juliet, Amanda, Solly and Maisie. And of Christine, whose troubled, hilarious spirit presides over Arlington Park and the way of life it represents.

Press Quotes

Observer

“Rachel Cusk is particularly adept at treading the line between humour and menace.”
