About this listen
Maggie O'Farrell's best-selling novel about childhood fears, families and love.
Gripping, insightful and deft, The Distance Between Us by Maggie O'Farrell is a haunting story of the way our families shape our lives, from the award-winning author of This Must Be the Place. It was a Sunday Times top 10 best seller and won the Somerset Maugham Award.
On a cold February afternoon, Stella catches sight of a man she hasn't seen for many years but instantly recognises. Or thinks she does. At the same moment on the other side of the globe, in the middle of a crowd of Chinese New Year revellers, Jake realises that things are becoming dangerous.
They know nothing of one another's existence, but both Stella and Jake flee their lives: Jake in search of a place so remote it doesn't appear on any map and Stella for a destination in Scotland, the significance of which only her sister, Nina, will understand.

"This is the third of her seductive novels and quite the best to date...[it] has an extraordinary female intensity and authentic emotional punch." ( Independent)
"Maggie O'Farrell's third novel...flits across countries and generations with a butterfly's lightness of touch...O'Farrell's storytelling is masterly and multilayered." ( Telegraph)
