About the Book

An expanded version of Emma Tennant's short story "The Crack"

Look what's happened!

A crack has opened in the Thames!

Hampstead uplifted high in the sky!

Watch the turmoil spread. See the loony psychoanalysts lead their demented flock around the cracked and broken streets. A religious maniac's at large, she's promising her female believers a new and man-less life on the 'Other Side'.

And through it all goes Baba; dear sweet, kind unliberated Baba, leaving a trail of love and destruction in her wake.
