Book Description: Fran has been married to Nick for more than 12 years, since they were eighteen. They are happy together until a 'little stranger' arrives, in the form of baby Louis, and their lives are irrevocably changed. The boy has good health and a sweet nature, but Fran feels stifled, her old life merely a memory. So, one day, she simply walks away.
Editorial Review: "'A witty, charming and highly readable novel, laced with an exploration of those primal fears that stubbornly remain taboo among mothers' Independent 'Pullinger treats with thoughtful sympathy that profound taboo, the breaking of the mother-baby-bond' Guardian 'Pullinger is an astonishingly powerful author who deserves the widest readership. A Little Stranger is that extraordinary thing: a mix of literary excellence and finesse combined with a very ordinary and accessible look at life' Sunday Express 'Beautifully written and executed' Dally Mall 'Pullinger expertly demonstrates the harshness of her characters' world through the coolness of her writing' Independent on Sunday"
About the Author: I'm a Canadian who has lived in London, England the whole of my adult life. I've written lots of books, and have recently embarked on a programme to get most of my backlist into ebook editions. My new novel, 'Landing Gear' is out with Doubleday Canada, and Simon & Schuster in the USA, in both hardcover and ebook editions initially. In the UK, where I live, 'Landing Gear' is available as ebook only. 'The Mistress of Nothing' was my 'American debut'. In November 2009 'The Mistress of Nothing' won Canada's Governor General's Literary Award for Fiction; this was a huge huge honour for me and my book. I've been having a great time since then, as the GG has raised the profile of the book enormously, and has helped bring it to more readers. I'm hoping that readers who enjoyed 'The Mistress of Nothing' will also enjoy my new novel, 'Landing Gear', though they are very different books. As well as books, I also collaborate on works of digital fiction, like inanimatealice and flightpaths. In 2014 I'm helping co-create a new kind of war memorial, in response to the 100th anniversary of the beginning of World War One, Letter to an Unknown Soldier. The project asks everyone who is interested to write a letter to an unknown soldier. You can read my blog at katepullinger. Thanks for your interest!
