1 Tessa Hadley Accidents in the Home
London Jonathan Cape 2002 0-224-06230-1 / 9780224062305 First Trade Paperback Near Fine  Fiction 
Unread copy almsot as new. An improbable coincidence brings Clare back into contact with someone she once had sex with at a teenage party; to complicate matters, he is now going out with her best friend, Helly. The encounter needn't have meant anything - it could just have been funny, or embarrasing - but it seems to have the power to shake up everything in Clare's life. Helly and Clare learned to smoke together, and shoplift together, and even read an old copy of The Female Eunuch together, squeezed side by side on Helly's bed. Now Clare is married with three small children, she bakes her own bread and buys her clothes from the charity shop. Helly is an actress and has her golden curves pasted up on billboards ten feet high. And each of them seems to want what the other has. Clare's story is intertwined with other stories of her extended family. Her father has been married three times and left a trail of children. Her sister Tamsin steals money from her grandfather to buy clothes. Her half-brother Toby is a dreamy boy who prefers to see life through his camera: unwillingly he also finds he has an odd gift, he sees things that aren't actually there. a reflection of a flickering fire against a wall, a sinister axe, and worse. Accidents in the Home dips in and out of the lives of this complicated, close, fraught family, reaching out into the past for explanation and illumination as well as across the present. It is the debut of a quite formidable fictional talent.
