335 pages ; 24 cm, Anna is struggling to afford life in London as she trains to be a singer.

It's there that she meets Max, a financier fourteen years older than her. Over the course of one winter, Anna's intoxication oscillates between her hard-won moments on stage, where she can zip herself into the skin of her characters, and nights spent with Max in his glass-walled flat overlooking the city. But Anna's fledgling career demands her undivided attention and increasingly -- whether he necessarily wills it or not -- so does Max, First published in the US by Henry Holt in 2022
