Description

**Short-listed for the Booker Prize. “A singular accomplishment.” — *Boston Globe* “Powerfully bewitching.” — ***** Los Angeles Times*** In 1912, rational Fred Fairly, one of Cambridge’s best and brightest, crashes his bike and wakes up in bed with a stranger — fellow casualty Daisy Saunders, a charming, pretty, generous working-class nurse. So begins a series of complications — not only of the heart but also of the head — as Fred and Daisy take up each other’s education and turn each other’s philosophies upside down. This new edition features an introduction by Philip Hensher, author of *Scenes from Early Life* , along with new cover art.
