Again, Rachel
by Marian Keyes
25 years after the publication of her million copy-selling rehab novel Rachel's Holiday, Marian Keyes revisits one of her best known fictional creations Rachel Walsh. Now sober, sensible, and holding down a successful job as an addiction counsellor, Rachel's steady world is rocked again by the reappearance of an old flame. With lashings of Keyes' trademark wit and snappy dialogue, Again, Rachel is a superlative romantic comedy that will break your heart. Comfort reading of the highest order.
The audiobook version is read by the author and features an exclusive Q&A with Irish talkshow host Graham Norton.
“This book had me right from the moment the protagonist, Rachel, opines that she can’t be an addict: ‘Surely drug addicts were thinner?’ She thinks rehab will be glamorous and filled with celebrities – instead it’s hard work. Addiction is a gritty subject, but the story of Rachel’s progress is told with such humour and reality that you devour the pages – and there are a lot of them.” Read more...
