Notes On Heartbreak

Fierce, funny and raw, this unflinchingly honest exploration of heartbreak is so much more than a book about one single break-up. "Painful while it sloughs away the dead romantic ideals, leaving you cleansed, reborn and gorgeously satisfied" (Pandora Sykes).

"A beautiful tender messy brilliant generous open-hearted book."  -  Emma Gannon 

This is a love story told in reverse. It's about the best and worst of love: the euphoric and the painful. The beautiful and the messy. Reeling from a broken heart, Annie Lord revisits the past - from the moment she first fell in love, the shared in-jokes and intertwining of a long-term relationship, to the months that saw the slow erosion of a bond five years in the making. 

"Notes On Heartbreak is a memoir about the disintegration of a five-year relationship. It starts with the break-up and goes both backwards and forwards in time, with Lord trying to make sense of things... It’s a sparkling and deliciously indulgent read which gets right into your chest and stays with you afterwards. It’s someone else’s story, but it will make you think about your own."  -  Daisy Jones, Vice

It is an unflinchingly honest reminder of the simultaneous joy and pain of being in love that will resonate with anyone that has ever nursed a broken heart.
