Sorrow and Bliss by Meg
Mason
At turns laugh-outloud funny, harrowing and sad, this is a moving portrayal of mental illness, of how friends, family and the afflicted learn to and sometimes fail to cope, and of the instinct and courage to survive. It is also a thoroughly modern and at times hilarious love story. Born into an eccentric London household, Martha’s love for Patrick is slow to unfold whereas his for her is constant from the outset, but can their relationship survive Martha’s demons, and can, will and should Patrick be her saviour?
