MLF24: An Evening with Matt Haig

‘Matt Haig is astounding’ Stephen Fry

International bestseller Matt Haig (The Midnight Library) returns with his spectacular new novel The Life Impossible. Retired maths teacher Grace Winters is stuck in a rut and grieving the recent loss of her husband, as well as their son Daniel 30 years earlier. When a long-lost friend leaves her a house in Ibiza, she also leaves a mystery as to how she died and what sort of life she led. Discovering the answers will change Grace’s life and give her a whole new beginning.
