Description

"[A Month of Sundays] demonstrates the capacity of a book to act as a mirror to the soul and an eloquent guide to a more contented future." WEEKEND AUSTRALIAN I wonder if we'll ever have the chance to actually be in the same room together,' Judy had ventured. For over ten years, Ros, Adele, Judy and Simone have been in an online book club, but they have never met face to face. Until now... Determined to enjoy her imminent retirement, Adele has invited her fellow bibliophiles to help her house-sit in the Blue Mountains. It's a tantalising opportunity to spend a month really getting to know each other, walking in the fresh air, napping by the fire and, of course, reading and talking about books. But these aren't just any books: each member has been asked to choose a book which will teach the others more about her. And with each woman facing a crossroads in her life, it turns out there's a lot for them to learn, not just about their fellow book-clubbers, but about themselves. Liz Byrski has written a beautiful novel about the joy and comfort reading a good book can bring to us all. PRAISE FOR LIZ BYRSKI "Byrski...is by turns turbulent and tender. Her characters are portrayed as...warm, funny flawed heroes grappling with the cards destiny has dealt them." WEST AUSTRALIAN "...reflective, warm and wise..." WEEKLY TIMES "Liz Byrski has a guaranteed cheer squad for her novels which champion...women taking charge of their life and growing old creatively." DAILY TELEGRAPH
