1. After much tragedy, Tomalin found happiness late in life. Was that mostly luck, or did her previous experiences allow her to finally feel content?

2. London and more specifically, a bygone era of London when the media landscape was completely different, played its own role in the book. What did you learn about that era?

3. Tomalin brilliantly evokes life as a Cambridge student in the 1950s. What did it teach you about the famous university town and experience?

4. Tomalin’s first husband, Nick, had a list of faults. Why do you think Tomalin stayed with him?
