2 w. ago A Family Matter by Claire Lynch review – powerful debut about lesbian mothers in the 80s

A woman is forced to rethink her childhood after she learns that her mother was denied custody, in a decade blighted by homophobiaFor a writer, the 1980s bear rich, dark fruit. The social and political turbulence of the decade provides the perfect landscape for Claire Lynch’s dual-timeline debut novel A Family Matter, which alternates between 1982 and the present day. On the surface, it is the story of a father-daughter relationship. Heron – an elderly man deeply fond of rules and routine – has recently received a terminal cancer diagnosis, but rather than share it with his grownup daughter, Maggie, who now has a family of her own, he chooses to bear the burden alone. As we learn that Heron raised Maggie by himself, it’s clear this urge to shield his only child from harm is a continuous theme. There is no mention of another parent, just that Heron was divorced many decades ago; it’s only when Lynch takes us back to 1982 that we discover the true story.When Maggie was a toddler,...

Coverage from Roland Garros as play starts at 10am BSTRaducanu admits struggle in win | And you can mail Katy and Medvedev suddenly springs into life with three quick points to hold. It’s 1-1.Norrie has held to 30 in the opening game against Medvedev. This is a tough match-up for the Brit, who trails their head-to-head 4-0, including a straight-sets defeat in Rome this month. In fact Norrie has never managed to take a set off the Russian. But Medvedev notoriously hates early matches, and he seems as if he’d still rather be in bed as he slides 15-30 down on serve. Norrie thinks he’s pulled off a winner but it’s called out, but then finishes a well-constructed point with a backhand volley. Break point Continue reading...
