The language of others

"The world is puzzling, sometimes frightening place for Jessica Fontaine. As a child she only finds contentment in playing the piano and wandering alone in the empty spaces of Audlands Hall, the dilapidated country house where she grows up." "Twenty-five years later, divorced, with her son still living at home. Jessica remains preoccupied by the desire to create space around her. Then her volatile ex-husband reappears, the first of several surprises that both transform Jessica's present and give her a startling new perspective on the past." "The Language of Others tells the story of a woman who spends much of her life feeling that she is out of step with the real world, until she discovers why."--BOOK JACKET.
