This is because Sylvie is in love with her therapist. She wants to kiss her and roll around on the floor with her. She thinks about her every second they’re not together (roughly 167 hours and 10 minutes per week). She’s aware she has an obsession, but whether it is – as her therapist suggests – a case of extreme ‘erotic transference’, or a lost person’s need to connect, Sylvie isn’t sure.Beyond therapy, Sylvie has what she considers to be a small life: a job as a veterinary nurse, her little brain-damaged dog, Curtains, and a new friend Chloe who she met on the beach. When the therapist delivers some devastating news, Sylvie has to imagine new and lasting ways of coping (that don’t include being adopted by the therapist). Her world has begun to open up, inching beyond the fear that has confined her until now, and she must decide whether she’s ready for a bravery of feeling.In this stunning debut novel, Adelaide Faith encapsulates the great vulnerability, difficulty and joy of being alive.''There is so much rare humour and insight and sweetness and humanity … and a true and ringing voice'' Sheila Heti, author of Pure Colour‘A spare, associative novel of projection and self-acceptance’ New Yorker''A tragicomic portrait of a mind in the process of healing'' The Cut''Witty and irreverent … Readers will fall in love'' Publishers Weekly''A jaw-dropping, exhilarating, completely original high-wire act'' Jessica Stanley, author of Consider Yourself Kissed''With tenderness and never force, Happiness Forever reminds us that the most meaningful choices can be the small, everyday things that simply string a life together'' Pandora Sykes, author of How Do We Know We''re Doing It Right? ‘For fans of Convenience Store Woman and Pond’ Sharlene Teo, author of Ponti‘Surprising and funny … poignant and philosophical … a book I won''t soon forget’ Chelsea Hodson, author of Tonight I''m Someone ElseReaders love Happiness Forever⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐:''Utterly beguiling … a truly memorable read''''Quite honestly couldn’t put it down''''An utter joy to read!
