Alex and Christine and Zachary and Lydia are two close knit middle-aged couples who have been friends for decades. Lydia and Christine were friends and flatmates at college when Lydia developed an all-obsessive crush on Alex, their French instructor and pursued him relentlessly. But in the course of events, they met Alex’s friend Zachary and Lydia ended up married to Zachary while Alex married Christine, whom he had always had a soft corner for!
Now decades later, the couples are more than friends! They are almost like family! Our story begins one evening with the news of Zach’s unexpected and untimely demise. The shock and grief initially brings the remaining three friends closer and Lydia moves in with Alex and Christine - at least until the practical aspects of this grief (like the funeral) can be dealt with. But once the sharp shock and pain abates, and each person is left dealing with their individual memories and sorrow, they discover that some fundamental balance of their friendship has altered. The absence of one of them from the relationship has somehow turned a safe, solid and comfortable friendship into something strange and new and uncertain! They slowly realise that Zachary’s death might not bring them closer like they all expected - in fact, their friendship might not survive his loss!!
What I liked:- This beautifully written tale about complicated and chaotic relationships! This book isn’t about violent emotions or outbursts of passion - it is more the subtle, confused ,many-layered and all too real emotions of ordinary people in perfectly ordinary lives.

“Todas las heridas parecían superadas en el momento de presente placer, mientras charlaban y comían pasta y pescado a la plancha. La luz del toldo borraba los signos de la edad y los favorecía, y se sentían importantes, como si se hubiesen sentado a la mesa para una fotografía aunque en realidad se olvidaron y no hicieron ninguna.” Lo que queda de luz Tessa Hadley Late in the Day Traduce Magdalena Palmer Edita @sextopiso_es #loquequedadeluz #lateintheday #tessahadley #libros #books #lecturas #novela #bookscenes #booklife #bookstagram #booklover #bookcover #bookaddict #playmobilandbooks #playmobilfigures #playmobil #playmobilespaña #playmobilfans #playmobilworld #playmobillovers #playmobilcollector #playmobillife #playmobilphotography #planetaeris (en Editorial Sexto Piso España) https://www.instagram.com/p/CGsExDDFFmY/?igshid=85mw4jknxqrt
