Clare Wilson, a widow in her late seventies, navigates the complexities of post-Brexit Britain while grappling with personal loss and the impact of Covid-19. Her comfortable life in South Kensington is disrupted by unexpected events, forcing her to confront a world filled with anxiety. The novel serves as a poignant 'state-of-the-nation' commentary, rendered in Lucy Beckett's precise and gentle prose. Richly detailed, it offers intimate reflections on faith and the human experience, evoking the essence of a Flemish painting through its domestic and distant imagery.
