We Are All Made of Glue

Eccentric relationships meet comedic mystery-solving.

"We Are All Made of Glue" by Marina Lewycka could be the book that brings a smile to your face after a long day. With Georgie's quirky entanglement with her neighbor Mrs. Shapiro, it's a heartwarming blend of humor and mystery that you didn’t know you needed. It has a way of reminding us about the unexpected connections that can profoundly change our lives, all wrapped in a lively narrative that's as sticky and compelling as the adhesives Georgie writes about.

Note: While we do our best to ensure the accuracy of cover images, ISBNs may at times be reused for different editions of the same title which may hence appear as a different cover.

Description

Georgie Sinclair's life is coming unstuck. Her husband's left her. Her son is obsessed with the End of the World. And now her elderly neighbour Mrs. Shapiro has decided they are related. Or so the hospital informs her when Mrs. Shapiro has an accident and names Georgie next of kin. This, however, is not a case of a quick ward visit: Mrs. Shapiro has a large rickety house full of stinky cats that needs looking after and that a pair of estate agents seem intent on swindling from her. Plus there are the "Uselesses" trying to repair it (uselessly). Then there's the social worker who wants to put her in a nursing home. Not to mention some letters that point to a mysterious, painful past. As Georgie tries her best to put Mrs. Shapiro's life back together, somehow she must stop her own from falling apart...
