Guardian Bookshop Notes:

A beautifully written memoir about reticence and its costs; a story about love and fearing the strength of your own feelings; about family ties, and the deep human need to keep secrets. A great new book by one of Faber's bestselling authors, this is a lead non-fiction title for April.
