THIS YEAR IT WILL BE DIFFERENT
and other stories
Christmas: a time of year when emotions run high and long-held secrets can unexpectedly surface...
This Year It Will Be Different powerfully evokes the lives of wives, husbands, children, friends and lovers. As the festivities take hold, there are step-families grappling with exes; long-married couples faced with in-law problems; a wandering husband choosing between the other woman and his wife; a child caught up in a grown-up tug-of-war.
'With her gift for effortless characterisation . . . she evokes power shifts in families, unwelcome discoveries, conspiracies, affairs, forgiveness, sorrow and the rebirth of optimism with her usual warmth and sympathy' Elizabeth Buchan, Sunday Times
