Beschreibung
Six strangers have one thing in common: their lives aren't always what they make them out to be. But what would happen if they told the truth instead? Exploring loneliness, motherhood, addiction and love, this beautiful debut shows the importance of truth, connection and friendship in a society that continues to put up barriers. Inspired by the author's own brave step to be honest about her alcohol addiction.
