What Will Survive of Us
Wonderfully wise, moving and heartfelt - William Boyd
A tender love story - Daily Telegraph
LONGLISTED FOR THE DUBLIN LITERARY AWARD 2025
Lily falls in love with Sam the minute she sets eyes on him. It takes Sam a day or two longer. Curious, because Lily has never quite believed in love, while Sam thought he understood it inside out.
Lily, a documentary maker, and Sam, a playwright, are both in relationships that have quietly expired, and an affair takes hold that they are powerless to resist.
Arriving in mid-life, their relationship opens unexpected new worlds. But what will happen to them when familiarity and age begin to take their toll? What will survive?
