Speak to Me

A barbed, funny, painfully well observed study of contemporary relationships, centring on the love triangle between a wife, her husband, and his mobile phone. 'I shall explain about our marriage. We have a modern version of a long-distance relationship. We share a house, but live in different historical eras...' What happens in a relationship when your partner only has eyes for their new phone? What happens when you lose a treasured possession - a hoard of love letters documenting a relationship that never really ended - and this loss becomes an obsession? Speak to Me is the story of a woman's quest, in a world ruled by screens and devices, for a conversation that will unlock who she once was, and what she really wants now. Keenly observed, tender and sharply funny, this is an audiobook about all the ways we say, and don't say, the things in our hearts. 'Sharp as a skewer about the devices and desires in many modern marriages. I loved it' Amanda Craig (P) 2023 Headline Publishing Group Ltd
