Small Talk
Not yet published
Expected 27 Apr 27Tonight, Magnus and Meredith are going to a fortieth birthday party.
It will be an evening like many people will talk too much, drink too much, and confide things they shouldn't - about the price of the wine, marathon training, marital regrets and secret aspirations. There will be indecent behaviour, late-night dancing and the faint, persistent sense that something larger is at stake.
Because underneath all the small talk around the table is the big conversation Magnus and Meredith are not should this be the night they start trying for a baby, and in a relationship this happy, what the hell is going to happen next?
For readers of Katherine Heiny, Meg Mason and Miranda July, Small Talk is a sharp-eyed, tender and all too relatable novel about one couple deciding (or not) to put everything on the table . . .

So good and so JUICY, did not want to put it down. Felt very true but also successfully dramatic and funny
