Julia Kelly met a charismatic and successful artist, Charlie Whisker, while she was working on her first novel. He was 20 years older than her. Their relationship was passionate and extraordinary; each of them inspired the other. Their friends were writers, artists, and rock stars; they lived a glamorous life of exhibitions, parties, and concerts. They became parents to a daughter they adored. But Charlie suddenly changed, becoming hopelessly forgetful, angry, and confused. This is an unbearably honest, unsentimental, and heartbreaking description of a brilliant man's mental disintegration and its effects on his family. Charlie's disturbing behavior is described in a series of terrible, understated revelations. An unforgettable telling of a story that will be familiar to many thousands of people in the UK and Ireland.
