Vital signs

Tessa McWatt

earliest edition we have, 2011 William Heinemann, 2012 165 pages

Vital Signs is a novel that takes us deep inside a marriage in crisis, teasing out the unspoken rules that run - or ruin - love relationships. So much is taken for granted in a long marriage, so much is relied upon, so much is resented, so much is never spoken. Part love story part forensic examination of the psyche, the author digs deep into what makes us human in this disturbing portrait of family life.
