THIS, my friends, from @edelcoffey is an absolute BELTER! I devoured it in two compulsive gulps. The, premise: overstretched mother accidentally leaves her baby in an overheated car, the baby doesn't survive. #BreakingPoint looks at what we expect from women, especially mothers

👏👏👏'It is a privilege to read such a novel, and it richly deserves its place on this year’s Booker longlist. It is suffused with generosity, wisdom and understanding, and with a recognition that everybody has a value.'

I chose How To Build A Boat by Elaine Feeney, Soldier, Sailor by Claire Kilroy and Strange Sally Diamond by Liz Nugent. Also loved @DublinLitAward winner Marzahn, Mon Amour. What are your favourite books of 2023 so far?

‘A consequence of our thirst for individual success is sometimes the notion that this is attainable without other people.’ 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻This is what How To Build A Boat is all about. Loved this interview with Booker longlisted @elainefeeney16
