The Answer to Everything by Luke Kennard
'Captivating' Ruth Jones, author of Us Three 'Tremendous' William Boyd author of Any Human Heart 'Funny, wry, unsettling' Nathan Filer, author of The Shock of the Fall Emily should be happy. She has a nice husband (even if they rarely speak to each other, let alone sleep in the same bed), two little boys she loves (even if a full night's sleep is a distant memory) - and now, a brand-new house in which they can live out all of the bourgeois fantasies she knows she should be ashamed of.
But still she aches for something more. Enter Alathea and Elliott, their new neighbors, and also parents of two young boys. Alathea is intimidatingly confident and beautiful, but also disarmingly open and friendly.
And Elliott ... Elliott is intriguing. Disheveled, talented, charming and a little lost, he seems as fascinated by Emily as she is by him, and soon their friendship has reached an intensity neither of them seem able to control.

We are open:

We are back open six days a week, with the whole store open for browsing. We will still of course be taking customer orders and you will still be able to buy food and cleaning products online through our online store.
We are able to be open 6 days a week again because of your consideration and care whilst in the shop. Though things are opening up, covid cases are still high and a lot of our staff have only received one jab. So we are asking customers to continue to leave that extra space, sanitise their hands and pull on their mask. We really appreciate it.
