Lucy Fricke's DAUGHTERS tells the story of two women, pushing forty, on a road trip across Europe, each of them dealing with difficult dads along the way. A bestseller and booksellers' favourite in Germany, DAUGHTERS evokes laughter and tears by way of life and death, friendship and family."Splendid. Uproariously funny and movingly beautiful." Der Spiegel. Lucy Fricke's Daughters tells the story of two women, pushing forty, on a road trip across Europe, each of them dealing with difficult fathers along the way. A bestseller and booksellers' favourite in Germany, Daughters evokes laughter and tears by way of life and death, friendship and family.

"In this wildly funny novel, women-on-the-edge-of-a-nervous-breakdown Betty and Martha take us on a madcap journey through Germany, Switzerland, Italy and Greece, as they try to resolve their relationships with their all-too frail and human fathers. Sinead Crowe's seamless translation captures the humour, self-irony, honesty and wisdom of Betty's lively narrative." Antonia Lloyd-Jones, translator of Olga Tokarczuk
