'Girls can even be brave enough to shoot tigers, if they can keep their cool.'
How Girls Can Help to Build Up the Empire: The Handbook for Girl Guides (1912)

Alice Robinson is having doubts about her job on a fashionable London art magazine. Agreeing to house sit for her parents, she moves back to the suburban streets of her childhood, a world of Girl Guides, Tudorbethan houses and blossom trees, and finds herself confronting some truths about the way she's chosen to live her life. How can we connect? What are the maps and manuals that show us how to live today?

Exploring the landscape of the South East and the nature of life on an island, this clear-eyed, mordantly witty, warm and unsparing novel culminates in one of the most surprising and destabilizing endings you'll have read in some time.

Landfall marks the arrival of a new, intriguing voice and a major literary talent.
