Description
Francis Wootton's first memory is of Kurt Cobain's death. Since then, Francis would-be poet, possible intellectual, and definitely wasted in Tyne and Wear has grown used to figuring life out on his own.
Lower Fifth is meant to be his time. But when he is diagnosed with leukaemia, a whole new world of worry opens up and the future abruptly narrows down.
Then he meets Amber, and finds he has reason to tackle it all the good, the bad, and everything in between - head on.
In Bloom is a novel about wanting the very best from life, even when life shows you how very bad it can be. It is a novel about how to live.
