A Virago title

When Jack and Cindy meet at a friend’s party they are immediately attracted to one another. But neither could have predicted the journey they would take together over the next seven years. From New York to LA, through undisguised passion and hidden secrets, they come to realise the truth about themselves and their feelings for each other.

Cindy and Jack think they have tested their love to its limits and passed with flying colours. But life has other plans, and when Cindy falls dangerously ill, they face their greatest challenge.

Heartbreaking, inspirational and beautiful, STATE OF HAPPINESS captures the truth about love, and the truth about death. It is, quite simply, a tour de force.

Reviews

  • 'Brave, understated and unforgettable' DAILY MAIL
  • 'It is a pleasure and a relief to read someone who is not only first class but it also thorougly in tune with today's attitdues, feelings and language.' THE TIMES
  • 'Duffy combines her trademark wry cynicism with a softer, more tender approach as she tackles serious illness and its repercussions… this warm, witty and truthful love story dodges any hint of sentiment to hit the target.' TIME OUT
