Some Body to Love
A Family Story
'A treatise on empathy and grace in extraordinary circumstances' Jojo Moyes<BR><BR>'Today I sat on a bench facing the sea, the one where I waited for L to be born, and sobbed my heart out. I don't know if I'll ever recover.' <BR><BR> This note was written on 9 November 2017. As the seagulls squawked overhead and the sun dipped into the sea, Alexandra Heminsley's world was turning inside out. <BR><BR> She'd just been told her then-husband was going to transition. The revelation threatened to shatter their brand new, still fragile, family. <BR><BR>But this vertiginous moment represented only the latest in a series of events that had left Alex feeling more and more dissociated from her own body, turning her into a seemingly unreliable narrator of her own reality. <BR><BR> Some Body to Love is Alex's profoundly open-hearted memoir about losing her husband but gaining a best friend, and together bringing up a baby in a changing world. Its exploration of what it means to have a human body, to feel connected or severed from it, and how we might learn to accept our own, makes it a vital and inspiring contribution to some of the most complex and heated conversations of our times.<BR><BR>'An honest, moving and authentic examination of the end of a relationship... Heminsley's writing is sharply resonant' SheerLuxe<BR><BR>'Insightful and wise, generous and kind' David Nicholls
