Publisher Description

A fresh new edition of this poignant exploration of lost love and memories from the author of the 2024 No. 1 bestselling Australian fiction title.

'A thought-provoking story that explores family dynamics with intelligence, wit and sensitivity' - Courier Mail

When Alice Love surfaces from a strange dream to find she's been injured in a gym, her first concern is for her unborn baby. She's desperate to see her husband, Nick, who she knows will be worried about her. But Alice isn't pregnant. And Nick isn't exactly rushing to her bedside. She is a mother of three going through a bitter divorce. Alice has lost ten years of her life - and she wants them back.

Praise for What Alice Forgot:

'Funny and knowing . . . [about] what we choose to remember, and fight to forget' - O Magazine

'What [Moriarty] writes are acute social comedies of the feminine, where the domestic is more political than cosy . . . Technically this premise is a challenge, which Moriarty makes appear effortless . . . bravura depiction. Great stuff' - The Age

'A bittersweet tale by a gifted writer, whose light touch doesn't stop her exploring darker themes, such as infertility and the sad erosion of a once radiant love' - Australian Women's Weekly

'An intriguing exploration of how people change . . . Alice's amnesia is skilfully used and like a detective, she must piece together the details of a life she cannot remember' Sun Herald

Memories? Don’t take them for granted!

I thoroughly enjoyed this book. It wasn’t too demanding and I learned a great lesson. Never take your memories for granted and don’t lose the ones you love for they are the keeper of your memories. Like an old diary you may need one day…keep your family close.
