An absolutely beautiful story about the depths of friendship, family, love and devotion. I smiled, my heart raced, I wept and I rejoiced. Sarah’s previous book Tin man still stands as one of the best books I have ever read, with her ability to capture human devotion and all consuming and openly accepting love. With Still Life she has delivered an epic story, spanning many years, and thankfully and frankly with a lot more pages to devour. I have done nothing all day but read this book.. I could not leave the characters alone - 500 pages in 24 hours is not my usual style! Am extremely happy with the LQBTIQ representation again.
Sarah Winman is a master storyteller and I cannot wait to handsell this book.

Was not my usual read and the writing style quite difficult to follow. Lots of characters and lots of things happening!!
Also just found it annoying that the parrot can talk ✋
