Synopsis

Bestselling author Marian Keyes has delighted readers with the lives, loves, and foibles of the irrepressible Walsh sisters and their eccentric mammy. In this Life in the Big Apple is perfect for Anna. She has the best job in the world, a lovely apartment, and great friends. Then one morning, she wakes up in her mammy's house in Dublin with stitches in her face, a dislocated knee, hands smashed up, and no memory at all of what happened. As soon as she's able, Anna's flying back to Manhattan, mystified but determined to find out how her life turned upside down. As her past slowly begins coming back to her, she sets out on an outrageous quest--involving lilies, psychics, mediums, and anyone who can point her in the right direction.

Marrying life's darker bits with wild humor and tender wit, Anybody Out There? is a strange and wonderfully charming look at love here and ever after.

About this title

Review:

"Keyes...breathes new life into chick lit...[she] cuts down on the froth but leaves the fun and romance intact."--New York magazine

From the Back Cover:

'I'd lost my place in the universe.
It had closed up and there was nowhere for me to be. I was more lost than I had known it was possible for any human being to be . . .'

Anna Walsh is covered in bandages and lying in her parents' Good Front Room. She's dreaming of leaving Dublin and returning to New York.

To her home. To her job. And most of all to her husband Aiden.

Unfortunately, her family have other ideas. She's staying put. And Aiden? Well he's refusing to even take her calls.

What has pushed Anna so far from everything that she loves?
Is she the only one who can put it all right?
And if not, who is?

'Keyes writes brilliantly, as always, about love, grief, jealousy and friendship' Daily Mail
