About Right After The Weather

From the New York Times bestselling author of Carry the One, a new novel that explores what happens when a group of formerly untested friends are confronted with their worst fears . . . Chicago, 2016. Cate is a stage designer in her early forties with a firm plan to fix up her life. Though she's started a promising new relationship with the glamorous Maureen, she is haunted by an old, still-seductive affair. On top of this, her newly heartbroken ex-husband is now camped out in Cate's spare bedroom, in thrall to online conspiracy theories, and she's not sure how to help him. The best model of serious adulthood in her life is her best friend Neale, a yoga instructor who lives nearby with her son. While Cate is busy with work and her string of messy relationships, a pair of small-time criminals only a few blocks away are leading a very different kind of life - dark and desperate. Their world collides with Cate's the day she walks into Neale's kitchen to find these strangers assaulting her friend. Forced to take action, Cate does something she would not have thought she could do - in an instant, her world is overturned. Anshaw's flawed, beautifully observed characters grapple with love, trauma, and the darker aspects of human nature in this stunning novel about change and the reverberations of our actions.*************Praise for Carry the One 'Here's passion and addiction, guilt and damage, all the beautiful mess of family life. Carry the One will lift readers off their feet and bear them along on its eloquent tide' Emma Donoghue 'Superb . . . Anshaw sees her characters with startling clarity, an acute alertness to nuance, and no small helping of warmth and humour. A marvellous novel, grown-up, smart and emotionally intelligent' Patrick Ness, Guardian 'A finely crafted novel, full of phrases you want to cut out and keep, and characters you think you know. It is delicate in its touch, yet huge in its reach' Observer
