Three Things About Elsie

Nobody knows yet that she is a murderer...   Abandoned at the gates of a London park one winter's night in 1850, baby Lily Mortimer is saved by a young police constable and taken to the London Foundling Hospital. Lily is fostered by an affectionate farming family in rural Suffolk, enjoying a brief childhood idyll before she is returned to the Hospital, where she is punished for her rebellious spirit. Released into the harsh world of Victorian London, Lily becomes a favoured employee at Belle Prettywood's Wig Emporium, but all the while she is hiding a dreadful secret...   Across the years, policeman Sam Trench keeps watch over the young woman he once saved. When Sam meets Lily again, there is an instant attraction between them and Lily is convinced that Sam holds the key to her happiness - but might he also be the one to uncover her crime and so condemn her to death?  *ONE OF THE TIMES' BOOKS OF THE YEAR*  Praise for Rose Tremain:  'One of my favourite writers' Nina Stibbe  'Tremain is

A #1 INTERNATIONAL BESTSELLER  One of The Times books of the year: 'Ripples with wit, insight and vitality'   'The Weekend is so great I am struggling to find the words to do it justice... Wood is an agonisingly gifted writer: I am now going to read all her other books!' Marian Keyes  'It was refreshing to encounter a novel that so profoundly sympathises with women on the forbidding cusp of being classified as "elderly". Wood ably conveys that older women didn't used to be old, and that the experience of ageing is universally bewildering' Lionel Shriver (Observer, Books of the year)    'Radical... I really recommend it'  Pandora Sykes and Dolly Alderton on The High Low podcast  'Riveting'  Elizabeth Day   'A perfect, funny, insightful, novel about women, friendship, and ageing. I loved it' Nina Stibbe   'What a terrific novel... Witty warm and wise' Simon Mayo  'Charlotte Wood zooms in and makes these women increasingly sympathetic and individual in a way that really pulls on the heart

Paradise Lodge : Penguin Books : 9780241974926 : 0241974925 : 06 Apr 2017 : Lizzie Vogel's story continues in Paradise Lodge, the brilliantly comic sequel to Nina Stibbe's hilarious Man at the Helm.  'LOVE it! Instant classic - funny, wise, touching, entirely delightful' MARIAN KEYES  *****  Working in a care home is not really a suitable job for a schoolgirl but 15-year-old Lizzie Vogel went for it. It just seemed too exhausting to commit to being a full-time girlfriend or a punk (it is the 1970s after all), plus she has some knowledge of old people. They're not suited to granary bread, and you mustn't compare them to toddlers, but she doesn't know there's a right way to get someone out of the bath - or what to do when someone dies.  When a rival old people's home with better parking and daily chairobics threatens to take all their residents, Paradise Lodge's cast of staff and helpers have to come together to save the home before it's too late.

But, if Lizzie thinks being independent means sex with her boyfriend (he prefers bird-watching), strict boundaries (her boss keeps using her loo) or self-respect (surely only actual athletes get fungal foot infections?) she's still got a lot more growing up to do.
