Summary
‘Truly compelling.’ Cathy Rentzenbrink
‘Breathtaking … I loved it.’ Fern Britton
‘Courageous. Inspiring. Hopeful.’ Alastair Campbell
Having suffered the unimaginable loss of her first husband and child, Lindsay Nicholson rewrites her story to become Britain’s most successful lifestyle magazine editor. But when a would-be suicide runs in front of her car, the pages of her picture-perfect life fall apart once more.
In just one year, Lindsay loses her marriage, job and home, and is even arrested. Suicidal and suffering from profound PTSD, she tries medication, therapy and New Age courses – until she finds the answer in the pages of her former magazines. Life isn’t about being perfect; it’s friendship and laughter, stitched together with the little things that truly matter.
Deeply moving, inspiring and sharply funny, Perfect Bound is an unforgettable story about resilience, recovery and what really makes life worth living.
Critic reviews
'A story about raw loss, heartbreak, extraordinary courage and, above all, love. The author’s voice as she narrates her journey out of the void is without self-pity or even anger. She writes with candour, insight and great tenderness. Riveting, heartbreaking, heartlifting and fine.' Nicci French
'I powered through this utterly compulsive and unforgettable memoir in three days straight. Perfect Bound is extraordinary, devastating, brutally honest, heartbreaking and full of love. Five stars from me.' Jill Mansell
'Clear your diary before you start reading this. A haunting, beautifully crafted story of a woman's courage, faced with impossible odds, which will cause you to look at life through new eyes. Unputdownable.' Orlando Murrin
'Perfect Bound is a searing testimony to both the frailty of life and the fortitude of the heart. Deeply moving, it’s a story of humanity and hope from a writer with an exquisite talent for bearing her soul.' Shari Low
