Acclaimed author Tessa Hadley was longlisted for the Guardian first book award for her novel Accidents in the Home. In The London Train, Paul leaves his family to search for Pia, his daughter from his first marriage. He finds her pregnant and living in less than ideal conditions-but with an outlook on life that's strangely compelling. Paul decides to start a new life and joins Pia in London. But he doesn't know that a chance encounter with a desperate woman will change his destiny.

“Powerful…Ms. Hadley has a talent for the canny detail…There are platoons of novelists producing work about middle-class marriages in disarray, most of it very dull. Ms. Hadley is one of the gifted exceptions, and the calm acuity with which she depicts these fractured relationships is haunting.”

— Wall Street Journal 

Quotes

  • “[Hadley] is a writer who has always allowed her fiction space to breathe beyond its narrative borders…Shows how language, deployed with precision or daring, can make thrillingly new the textures and undercurrents of everyday life.”

    — Sunday Times (London)
