Love can make us fly or make us crazy.

Set against the backdrop of a painter’s life, this lyrical novel is an exquisitely crafted meditation on the disintegration of a marriage and its turbulent aftermath. With unusual and sometimes brutal honesty, the author tells the story of two complex, wounded souls bound together by an addictive passion.

Sensual, courageous and ultimately compassionate, here is a dispatch from the frontlines of a hard-fought relationship, and from the universal battlegrounds of men and women, love and shame, bodies and hearts.

'The most lucid rendition of the madness of love you can hope to read in modern fiction. I was entranced.' - Karin Schimke, Cape Times
