Send me a picture of you wherever you are right now.

53-year-old Carmel is furious at her husband for dying. Grief-stricken and holding everything together for her adult sons, she’s never felt more alone. But as spring arrives in Dublin, she meets fellow widower Graham on a dating app. He makes her feel truly alive for the first time in years.

Across the sea in London, twenty-something Lisa devotes her life to helping people. Beneath the gleaming facades of Westminster, she cares for the homeless at work, and for her troubled sister at home. But Lisa has a secret that sustains her, and it’s growing more dangerous by the day.

When the two women’s lives collide, it brings a twisted connection that neither of them could have imagined – and cannot be undone.

Commentaires

"I devoured The Fox! Such a clever but human story of two lives colliding. My heart wouldn’t stop thumping" (SARA COX)
"A real literary page turner, a rare book, it’s absolutely amazing" (DONAL RYAN)
"God, I love the way Annie writes. I could swim in her words all day. The Fox is such a clever book, so insightful on motherhood, and grief, and longing, and the way that secrets keep us all going sometimes. A wily love story and a deeply complex exploration of friendship and that eternal hunger and thirst for true connection. Stunning" (EMMA JANE UNSWORTH)
"A beautiful and intelligent novel, full of compassion, and alive to the moral and emotional complexities of love, longing and deception. Annie Macmanus writes with clarity and elegance, and creates characters who are impossible not to care about" (OISÍN McKENNA)
"The Fox is a compelling, unforgettable and deeply original novel. A profound meditation on grief, loneliness, and the enduring human need for connection . . . beautiful, tender, mysterious and a sharply observed portrayal of midlife, full of intrigue and with the irresistible pace of a page-turner" (ELAINE FEENEY)
"A very 21st-century story of love and obsession" (SAM BAKER)
"A singular voice in contemporary Irish literature. A literary tour-de-force, The Fox illuminates a particular pulse in the zeitgeist with deep empathy and powerful intellect. It is that rare thing - a novel of great literary dexterity and profundity that is also commands deeply compulsive reading. MacManus carries the tradition of great Irish women writers into the future with stylish storytelling instincts that set this novel apart. Destined to be one of the books of the year" (HELEN CULLEN)
"An excellent idea for a novel . . . I was fascinated to read the knotty, horrifying situation play out in all its revealing mess. It's Annie's best book yet, filled with subtle insight and an unprejudiced understanding. It's a delicious book to spend an intense weekend with" (AMY LIPTROT)
"Annie Macmanus can write. The Fox is a beautifully natural but offbeat story of love and betrayal. Strangely tense and serene all at once" (MATT HAIG)
"In The Fox, Macmanus's strengths are plain to see; this is powerful writing with psychologically complex characters. She plots so skilfully and subverts and upends our expectations of what a modern day love story might look like" (MONA ARSHI)
