Seeing Other People: A Novel by Diana Reid - Book
Charlieâs skin was stinging. Not with heat or sweat, but with that intense, body-defining self-consciousness - that sense of being watched. She lowered her eyes from Eleanorâs loving gaze. Her throat taut with tears, she swallowed. âYouâre a good sister, Eleanor.â
'Don't say that.'
After two years of lockdowns, thereâs a change in the air. Eleanor has just broken up with her boyfriend, Charlieâs career as an actress is starting up again. Theyâre finally ready to pursue their dreams - relationships, career, family - if only they can work out what it is they really want.
When principles and desires clash, Eleanor and Charlie are forced to ask: where is the line between self-love and selfishness? In all their confusion, mistakes will be made and lies will be told as they reckon with the limits of their own self-awareness.
Seeing Other People is the darkly funny story of two very different sisters, and the summer that stretches their relationship almost to breaking point.
