Description

The powerful and highly anticipated second novel from the author of 2019's buzz debut What Red Was Rhianne's art degree at one of the best schools in London is cut short by the predatory attentions of a tutor, who destroys her confidence in the most insidious way. She retreats home to the west country, where, with the support of her dad Dominic and step-mum Melissa, she takes a job at a small hotel while she tries to figure out what next. That turns out to be a relationship with a charismatic young chef named Callum, which starts in the adrenalin-fuelled buzz of the kitchen and soon becomes much darker. It will test Rhianne and her loving family to their limits, until through her art, she manages to find a way back. From the acclaimed author of What Red Was, The Orange Room is a novel about being loved, being hurt, being seen and becoming free, for readers of Coco Mellors, Natasha Brown, Rachel Cusk and Deborah Levy.
