Description

Longlisted for the Dublin Literary AwardEliete is forty (something) Eliete has been married to Jorge for twenty years Eliete has an average career as an average estate agent Eliete has a completely normal life Eliete has reached breakingpoint Eliete is stuck in both a deadend job, and a deadend marriage. Shes never had many grand dreams or ambitions, but now she is starting to wonder if life might have passed her by, and if its too late to do anything about it. So, Eliete decides to join Tinder. She sets up some fake dating profiles, and embarks on a number of liaisons with various men around suburban Lisbon. Will this ignite her marriage with the spark it so desperately needs? Unlikely. It is the summer of 2016 Jorge has become hooked on Pokmon Go!, theres football on the telly, hes got opinions on Brexit, and he remains completely oblivious to his wifes new exploits. And then, in the middle of all of this, Elietes grandmother is diagnosed with dementia, and moves in with them. Alarmingly, her illness seems to have resurfaced some scandalous personal memories, and her unguarded outbursts threaten to reveal explosive, longburied family secrets. Secrets that suddenly turn Elietes perception of herself upsidedown, as her seemingly normal life collapses around her . . .Translated from the Portuguese by ngel GurraQuintana
