Is There Anything You Want?

by Margaret Forster - £9.99  Vintage (2006)
paperback    ISBN 13: 9780099472131 | ISBN 10: 0099472139

What do Mrs H., Edwina, Ida, Sarah, Dot and Chrissie have in common? They're all women, but they're fat, thin, old, young, married or single - and appear as diverse as human nture can be. But they are all survivors.
 
This enthralling novel follows the ripples that go out into ordinary lives which have been changed by a shared experience, all connected by the same hospital clinic in a small Northern town. This is a novel about what it means to live in the shadow of disease, and with scars, whether mental or physical.
 
From the marvellous ambivalence of the title question, it leaves us with a great deal more to consider about life and its infinite variety.
