Or maybe – as she has long believed – there is something wrong with her. Maybe she is just too sensitive, someone who finds it harder to be alive than most people. So why is everything broken? Why is Martha – on the edge of 40 – friendless, practically jobless and so often sad? And why did Patrick decide to leave? A gift, her mother once said, not everybody gets. Everyone tells Martha Friel she is clever and beautiful, a brilliant writer who has been loved every day of her adult life by one man, her husband Patrick. ![]()
