Synopsis "Second Honeymoon "

Trollope has perfectly caught the angst of the empty nest...the ebb and flow of relationships is brilliantly handled’ Observer Ben is, at last, leaving home. At twenty-two, he’s the youngest of the family. His mother, Edie, is distraught. Her husband, on the other hand, is rather hoping to get his wife back, after decades of family life. Ben’s brother is struggling in a relationship in which he achieves and earns less than his girlfriend. His sister is wrestling with debts and the end of a turbulent love affair. As the children’s lives become more complicated, they retreat to the simplicities of their childhood. But can you ever go home again? Meet the Boyd family and the empty nest, twenty-first-century style. ‘One of the finest chroniclers of the way we live now’ Independent on Sunday ‘Poignant prose...her novels have always contained the unexpected, but lately they've gained a grittiness which suits the everyday subject matter that lies at the heart of her writing’ Glamour
