Title: Good To a Fault
Description: Allen & Unwin 2009 Paperback, 448pp. Absorbed in her own failings, Clara Purdy crashes her life into a sharp left turn, taking the young family in the other car along with her. When bruises on the mother, Lorraine, prove to be late-stage cancer, Clara tries to do the right thing and - against all habit and comfort - moves the family into her own house, upending her life in the process. As Lorraine walks the borders of death, Clara expands into life, finding purpose, energy and unexpected love amidst the hard, unaccustomed work of sharing her days. But the burden is not only Clara's: the children must cope with the guilt of divided loyalties, and Lorraine must live with the growing, unpayable debt to Clara - and the feeling that Clara has taken her place. (ISBN: 9781742370262). Good.
