I Couldn't Love You More - by Esther Freud (Paperback)

This is a heart-wrenching and powerful portrayal of three generations of Irish women, crossing from London to Ireland and back again, as they navigate the enduring effort to retrieve the secrets of their past.

The book follows Rosaleen, who finds herself pregnant with Felix's child after an affair with a famous sculptor; Kate, adopted and struggling to find her sense of self amidst an unhappy marriage; and Aoife Kelly, running pubs with her husband Cash in London.

Through their stories, the book explores themes of love, sex, motherhood, and the enduring ties of family.

With a cast of complex and compelling characters, this book is both stirring and nostalgic at times, visceral and propulsive at others.

It is impossible not to fall under the spell of this tender, candid portrait of mothers and daughters, wives and muses, secrets and outright lies.
