This book was so beautiful. I wasn't expecting anything from this and only knew that it's going to be a story of a dysfunctional family before reading it. But, oh boy! it was hauntingly good and totally unpredictable. The centre of the character was Rachel Kelly who is an artist with bipolar disorder. but it was actually his husband Antony who held up this family together. And the brownie point was that it has stories from multiple perspectives and it was so interesting.

This guy Antony was head over heels in love with Rachel all through his life. He was so crazy about her that he always refers to Rachel as 'SHE'. Her personality was so large and pervasive that she was the first woman who sprang to his mind at the word. None of them ever thought he meant someone else, not even his daughter. Reading that made me smile like come on it is so cute.

He even trained their children to be kind with her no matter how much she loses her mind or get mad about them. He treated her like how she deserved throughout her life. That kind of love is very rare to find.

And before you come into conclusion, it's not just their love story. It's the story of their whole family and how her disorder has affected her children. Especially Morwenna and Petroc. Their stories were not revealed until the last half of the story and when it did, I wasn't expecting such ending. It was so good.

I could have easily moved on without writing a review here but I wanted to. I really want you all to try this book if you like this kind of family based stories.
