Born in 1905 Daisy Goodwill drifts through the chapters of childhood, marriage, widowhood, remarriage, motherhood and old age. Bewildered by her inability to understand her own place in her own life, Daisy attempts to find a way to tell her story within a novel that is itself about the limitations of autobiography." Winner of multiple literary prizes : Governor General's Award, Canada ; Pulitzer Prize and the National Book Critics Circle Award. (USA) and nominated for the Booker Prize (UK) Crisp unmarked copy.
