The Rain Before it Falls - Jonathan Coe's heartbreaking novel of family secrets. Deeply moving and compelling, The Rain Before it Falls is the story of three generations of one family riven by tragedy. When Rosamund, a reluctant bearer of family secrets, dies suddenly, a mystery is left for her niece Gill to unravel. Some photograph albums and tapes point towards a blind girl named Imogen whom no one has seen in twenty years. The search for Imogen and the truth of her inheritance becomes a shocking story of mothers and daughters and of how sadness, like a musical refrain, may haunt us down the years. Spectacular, heartbreaking, beautifully written. Rosamund's story is one of the most extraordinary and compelling you will ever read. Impossible to put down, I loved every minute of it . ( Sunday Express ). A sad, often very moving story of mothers and daughters . ( Guardian ). Entirely compelling...the plot will keep you rapt...reminiscent of Ian McEwan at his most effective . ( New Statesman ). Jonathan Coe's novels are filled with moving, astute observations of life and love, and are written with a revealing honesty that has captivated a generation of readers. His other titles, The Accidental Woman , The Rotters' Club (winner of the Everyman Wodehouse prize), The Closed Circle , The Dwarves of Death , The Terrible Privacy of Maxwell Sim , The House of Sleep (winner of the 1998 Prix Medicis Etranger), A Touch of Love , and What a Carve Up!
