Celeste lives in the city, where she makes ceramics, travels in style and curates a worldly sensibility while raising her sons. Both women seek a rooted contentment beyond the scope of their own access, a life of creativity, agency and fulfilment. Only one of them is real. The Shame follows Alma as she hurtles down a dark highway, alone, in a search to find out which one it is. A modern fable both blistering and surreal, The Shame explores the remote landscapes of desire and envy, revealing how in a world increasingly shaped by digital fabrication, what we imagine, and how we act on it, can either free us or become our undoing.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFrom the author of Helen of Nowhere comes another wild ride through the caverns of the contemporary psyche.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"THE CLEEVE BOOKSHOP LTD","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":57682555928951,"sku":"9781804272961","price":11.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0758\/0729\/3737\/files\/9781804272961.jpg?v=1793789152","url":"https:\/\/thecleevebookshop.co.uk\/products\/9781804272961","provider":"The Cleeve Bookshop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
