#Win Afternoon Tea with #MariaInTheMoon author Louise Beech @LouiseWriter @OrendaBooks




A stunning, beautifully written dark drama by the critically acclaimed author of How To Be Braveand The Mountain in My Shoe.
Thirty-two-year-old Catherine Hope has a great memory. But she can't remember everything. She can't remember her ninth year. She can't remember when her insomnia started. And she can't remember why everyone stopped calling her Catherine-Maria.
With a promiscuous past, and licking her wounds after a painful breakup, Catherine wonders why she resists anything approaching real love. But when she loses her home to the devastating deluge of 2007 and volunteers at Flood Crisis, a devastating memory emerges... and changes everything.
Dark, poignant and deeply moving, Maria in the Moon is an examination of the nature of memory and truth, and the defences we build to protect ourselves, when we can no longer hide...



Maria in the Moon by Louise Beech is published by Orenda Books in paperback on 30 September 2017 and is the author's third novel.

I read and reviewed Maria here on Random Things some time ago. I love this book, it's my favourite of her  novels so far. You can read my full review here.
