Description

Shortlisted for the 2024 Hungerford Award, this is a tender and quirky tragicomedy about family ties and unexpected strengths, told over the course of twenty-four hours. The day after Maud Tarkington turns twenty-one, she must attend the funeral of her favourite brother Lloyd. But instead, Maud is ricocheting around the city, looking for signs of life - will she even make it to Lloyd's send-off? Shortlisted for the 2024 Hungerford Award, This Is Where We Say Goodbye is a quirky, bittersweet story about family ties, memory and the unexpected ways we hold it together when everything has fallen apart.
