Grown Ups

'An endearing, moving novel about family, fertility and finding your feet' Emma Gannon 'Venomous. Bitchy. Brilliant' Independent Ireland 'One of the best novels about singleness, siblings and approaching middle age I've ever read' Jan Carson, author of The Fire Starters 'A beautiful, slim but powerful look at the complicated process of deciding whether to start a family' Nell Frizzell, author of The Panic Years Ida is a forty-year-old architect, single and starting to panic. She's navigating Tinder and contemplating freezing her eggs, but forces these worries to the back of her mind as she sets off to the family cabin for her mother's sixty-fifth birthday. But family ties old and new begin to wear thin, out in the idyllic Norwegian countryside. Ida is fighting with her sister Marthe, flirting with Marhte's husband and winning the favour of Marthe's stepdaughter. Some supposedly wonderful news from her sister sets tensions simmering even further, building to an almighty clash between Ida and her sister, her mother, her whole family. Exhilarating, funny and unexpectedly devastating, Grown Ups asks what kind of adult you are without a family of your own. MARIE AUBERT made her debut in 2016 with the short story collection Can I Come Home With You, published to great acclaim in Norway. Grown Ups is her first novel; it won the Young People's Critics' Prize and was nominated for the Booksellers' Prize in Norway.
