This is going to be one of the biggest Irish novels of the year

Show Me Where It Hurts by Claire Gleeson is set for publication in April and people are already calling it one of the best books of the year.

With praise from author Jennie Godfrey, we know this is going to be a remarkable read.

The novel follows Rachel who has to survive the unsurvivable after her husband Tom runs their family car off the road.

Show Me Where It Hurts is a story of unexpected hope and recovery.

The harrowing read is one novel you won't be able to put down this year.

The synopsis reads:

'How do you survive the unsurvivable? Rachel lives with her husband Tom and their two children: it's the comfortable family life she always thought she'd have. All of that changes in an instant - when Tom runs the family car off the road, seeking to end his own life and take his wife and children with him.

'Rachel is left to pore over the wreckage to try and understand what happened - to find a way to go on living afterward.

'What emerges is a snapshot of what it's like to live alongside someone who is suffering, how you keep yourself afloat when the person you love is drowning, and how you survive irreparable loss.'

Show Me Where It Hurts by Claire Gleeson will be published on April 10th.
