| book description |

'Never less than gripping... Reads like a classic' Observer 'Exceptional... thrilling and bitter and fulfilling' Vogue How do you rebuild a life? How do you move forward into joy when haunted by loss? How do you claim hope, while accepting the harm you've caused? This is the story of a ruptured marriage - one that was once brimming with hope. It is also the story of Leslie Jamison's consuming love for her young daughter, and the shaping legacy of her own parents' complicated bond. Exceptionally astute, and written with remarkable candour, Splinters is an account of motherhood, art and love, and what it means for a woman to be many things at once. 'A treatise on the contradictions of being a mother, a partner, a daughter and an artist - singly, and all at once' New Statesman 'Jamison encapsulates lived reality with evocative, embodied detail' Financial Times 'Unputdownable... squishing layer upon layer of resonant truths into meticulously crafted paragraphs' Red
