Summary
Teenager Sally has just run away from a clinic where she to be treated for anorexia. She's furious with everything and everyone, and wants to be left in peace. Liss is in her 40s, living alone on a large farm that she runs single-handedly. She has little contact with the outside world, and no need for other people.
From their first meeting, Sally realises that Liss isn't like other adults: she expects nothing of Sally and simply accepts who she is, offering her a bed for the night with no questions asked. That night becomes weeks and then months, as an unlikely friendship develops and these two damaged women slowly open up—connecting to each other, reconnecting with themselves and facing the darkness in their pasts through their shared work on the land.

Great characters
Easy to become invested in these two women. A wonderful insight into the benefits of multi generational friendship.

A good story but wrong narrator this time.
I heard the author on the World Book Club and it was wonderful. The story is interesting but, for me, the narrator just wasn't right as the voice of Sally was irritating.It was a shame the author did not read it.However I will probably read more of his books.
