More About the Author
Product Description
Review
‘In this vivid picture of “normal” life, Dunn’s Elizabeth, the oldest of three sisters, is a witty, down-to-earth female whom you really care for. Quite Contrary isn’t a weepy slice of bedtime reading, it’s a well-observed chapter on growing up – and it proves a touching and remarkably unpredictable read.’
Time Out
Product Description
The award-winning debut novel from the author of Venus Flaring and Tenterhooks.
Elizabeth, a young, overworked hospital doctor, gets a phone call from her father late on a Friday night telling her that her mother is dangerously ill. Over the course of the weekend that follows, Elizabeth, on duty as ever and confronting the barely controlled chaos of a busy casualty ward, finds moments to reminisce about her childhood, its joys and its miseries. Past and present are interwoven in a series of vivid tableaux, drawing the reader into an intimate understanding of Elizabeth’s life as a whole.
