The Blackbird

Allen, Claire
Books, Manuscripts
Hope nurses a husband with Alzheimers, a retired civic sculptor. A secret he has kept for her threatens the fragile peace she has made with her parents memory: the truth of what happened to her mother while her obsessive father built Liverpool Cathedral as the bombs still fell. Hope brings in Louise to be home-carer. A young mother struggling alone on the Blackbird Estate with an abusive ex-partner. Together, can they build a place where the past can't hurt them?
