- More about The Halt During the Chase
Sophie is intelligent, charming, and clever, but her mother and lover have stabbed her in the heart, leaving her feeling lonely. She decides to break away from her mother, Philip, and her snobbish Hampstead Heath upbringing, hoping to find freedom. This novel is a bubbly, empathetic, and ultimately lovely coming-of-age story.
Format: Paperback / softback
Length: 240 pages
Publication date: 02 May 2024
Publisher: Vintage Publishing
Finally back in print, a brilliantly funny and brutal novel from the inimitable Rosemary Tonks, author of The Bloater. Sophie's mother knows exactly how to needle her. Sophie's lover Philip knows how to stab her in the heart. She may be clever, charming, and smart, but is Sophie destined to be an eternal bit-part?
After a particular agonising throwaway remark from Philip, Sophie knows she must break away – from her mother, from Philip, from the snobbery of her well-to-do Hampstead Heath upbringing. Being good and agreeable has brought nothing but loneliness, now setting out alone might finally bring freedom.
A bubbly, empathetic, and ultimately lovely novel of a belated coming-of-age. New York Times. Nobody writes about angsty women like Tonks. The Millions.
