‚This memoir is by turns extremely funny and extremely sad . . . a stunning book‘ Stylist Jean Hannah Edelstein was looking for love on OKCupid the night she lost her father. She had recently moved back to America to be closer to her parents, leaving behind the good friends, bad dates and questionable career moves that defined her twenties. But six weeks after she arrived in New York, her father died of cancer – and six months after that she learnt she had inherited the gene that determined his fate. Heartbreaking, hopeful and disarmingly funny, This Really Isn’t About You is a book about finding your way in life, even when life has other plans. ‚One of the most brilliant writers of her generation . . . a magnificent book about families, mortality, love and the hard, necessary work of becoming an adult‘ Olivia Laing ‚Unsentimental, unflinching . . . told with honesty, self-effacing wit and poignancy‘ Observer
