Soon afterwards she meets Sylvia in a park, a woman who understands her pain but encourages a very different relationship with rest and recovery. The two friendships unfold separately and place competing demands on the narrator's sense of herself. Katherine Brabon's quiet literary novel explores chronic pain, intimacy, friendship and the complicated relationship between the mind and the body that carries it.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp class=\"csA7FF3E4\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"cs4E6322B\"\u003eUseful additional information\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp class=\"cs3274C94\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"csB28E23B\"\u003eAuthor: Katherine Brabon\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp class=\"cs3274C94\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"csB28E23B\"\u003eFormat: Paperback\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp class=\"cs3270F94\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"cs97DFFCB\"\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Dear Village","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":68046946238740,"sku":"9781761154706","price":19.99,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0679\/6460\/0596\/files\/9781761154706_1.jpg?v=1794389034","url":"https:\/\/dearvillage.com.au\/products\/body-friend","provider":"Dear Village","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
