"Love and sex with a man is like listening to a soloist. Pleasant, sometimes beautiful and moving. But with a woman."

-Clare Ashton, The Goodmans

"Love and sex with a man is like listening to a soloist. Pleasant, sometimes beautiful and moving. But with a woman."

-Clare Ashton, The Goodmans

"How was she meant to let go ? Sometimes, instead of having a single daughter, it felt as if she were grieving the loss of hundreds. The baby that clung to her little finger. The toddler who squealed with delight at her first steps. The small girl who said "I love you" for the first time with no ceremony and without realising it almost broke Maggie's heart with joy. The teenager who broke down when she needed Mum one last time. It was like her daughter disappeared over and over again. All those incredible people who Maggie would never meet again, some of whom were remembered only by her. And she felt colossal loneliness at the realisation."
