A blackbird dies in Olive's hands and the blood stains won't rub out. Even the cat can't eat the fish pie that her family say tastes like glue. And at the bottom of her garden the avocado tree is dying... How can Olive "Pull herself together" when reality overwhelms her everywhere she looks? By Painting in her attic and teaching herself to smoke? Does she in fact have a choice? It is only from the rooftop that prospects look serene...Lisa Greenwood's startling first novel is about the chill winter of self discovery that begins when delusions fall away in the face of the demands of others. What happens when Olive's family fail to recognise her needs?
