In powerful and diamond-sharp prose, Helen Dunmore writes a Dickensenian story of two brothers who come from nowhere and want everything. Paul and Johnnie are born twelve years apart, in a one-bedroom flat in Barking. Their progress is rapid anddevastating, and others are consumed by it. When Paul marries Louise, Johnnie is part of the contract, while their daughter Anna is tangled in it from birth. Paul deals in property, and self-destructive, seductive Johnnie deals in crime. When Johnnie has to get out of the country, Louise goes with him. This has been her story, too, right from the beginning, and she's going to tell it in all its crookedness, force and tenderness.
