The Stuff You Fail To Notice

By Carol Klein and Jonathan Buckley

You can live your whole life without knowing what's happening around you. But how can you stop the things you haven't even seen from blowing your world apart?

Minty Cartwright is on the brink of menopause, and reeling from the discovery that her husband has been having an affair with her closest friend from childhood. She takes refuge in a quiet holiday house in the Lake District, while she tries to figure out what's going on with her brain, her body and her life.

Fiona Winterson is a mess of mad hormones too, and she hates herself with a passion she once never knew she could feel. Her selfishness has shattered the heart of the 'soulmate' she's known and loved all her life. But when she ends up being faced with the worst of circumstances, she discovers that she needs that woman's help.

With decades of love and trust destroyed, Minty and Fiona are thrown back together in a sea of shame, fury and fear. Both women are forced to reconsider the value of a friendship that has influenced their whole lives.

Will the mysterious, healing energy of Teapot Cottage help them rediscover what's important to them both? Or is it all too painful - and too late - to even try?

Come back to friends old and new in the Lake District, where shattered lives can be gently pulled back together, with the help of 'a little bit of magic'
