A collection that shows us ourselves as we truly are<BR><BR>***AN IRISH TIMES 2024 DEBUT WRITER TO LOOK OUT FOR***<BR><BR>'A major new talent' I<BR><BR>'So precise and articulate' SUNDAY TIMES<BR><BR>Two teenage girls fixated on each other's bodies enter into a destructive competition; a woman's encounter with her ex forces her to reflect on the women's group that saved her; a couple's future is called into question after the damp expert they hire for their bathroom offers them free counselling; an older man's buried grief emerges during an altercation with a mother driving a 4×4; and over the course of a bitter winter a waitress lacks the money to fix an impacted tooth as the cracks begin to show in her precariously balanced life.<BR><BR>Free Therapy takes us into the inner lives of women and men who are versed in the language of therapy, possessed with the self-knowledge needed to change their lives, but finding themselves unwilling to doing so. As her characters try and fail to connect - via sex, friendship, screens and work - Rebecca Ivory explores desire in all its forms, revealing the ways in which we posture and present, and the softness and insecurities that lie beneath.<BR><BR>Perfectly observed, wry and illuminated by moments of sympathy and wisdom, Free Therapy shows us ourselves as we truly are.<BR><BR>'Arresting and inventive' SALLY ROONEY<BR><BR>'Her writing feels so fresh' PANDORA SYKES
