Falling in love, just as he's obliged to enter hospital for urgent treatment, Eustace has twenty-four hours in which to reflect on his new happiness, old pains and particularly on his boyhood. An oddball only child, he lives among a houseful of adults in the seaside care home run by his parents. His life is infused with colour when he begins cello lessons and falls for not only for music, but also his teacher, glamorous Carla Gold, who appears to cast a heady spell over everyone, including his difficult and controlling mother.On a holiday course in Scotland, Eustace learns the essential lessons of love, friendship, survival and resilience, and discovers that music-making brings release from emotional turmoil, setting him up for life.Rich with insight, intuition and humour, TAKE NOTHING WITH YOU is a stunning portrayal of a boy on the cusp of adulthood, gleaning from those around him both the glories and the complexities of what being a grown up can mean.Tinder Press logo£18.99
