The Golden Rule

Amanda Craig

Little, Brown £16.99

This portrait of Brexit Britain reveals a country hopelessly divided by class and geography. London ad strategist Hannah’s marriage has collapsed and she’s cleaning houses to feed her daughter. Her mother’s death takes her home to Cornwall, where a chance encounter triggers a summer of regeneration. A pacy state-of-the-nation drama that tackles issues from domestic abuse to workplace harassment, gentrification to the gig economy.
