'A treasure.' New York Times

Separated from her husband and young son, Ellen leaves behind the loneliness of London for a new life of excitement and sexual freedom:a 'jaunt into iniquity' on the gorgeous French Riviera. However, she soon discovers that independence blurs into loneliness, especially when she receives some heart-breaking news ...

Banned in several countries on first publication, Edna O'Brien's August is a Wicked Monthis a shimmering, sensual tale of a woman rediscovering herself - and it feels just as glorious, radical, and escapist as today.
