About this Event

We are delighted to be welcoming Rowe Irvin along to the shop on the evening of Tuesday 23rd June, as she chats to Rebecca Ferrier about her haunting and tender exploration of maternal love, , out in paperback on 4th June.

Maya and Daughter live in complete isolation in a secluded woodland, their days aligned with the light and changing seasons, a complex pattern of routine and ritual. Daughter has never questioned the life her mother has chosen for them; the life that has meant she's never met another soul, or known anywhere except their forest home.

But one day, when Daughter is almost sixteen, a red-haired stranger steps into the confines of their territory. Where there was always two, suddenly there are three - and the carefully constructed world that Maya has built to keep her daughter safe may not survive it.
