Looking for the Possible Dance

Short but very readable book. Centred on Margaret, sometimes Maggie, youngish, Scottish, it illuminates various relationships that shape her life. Although much of the book is concerned with the relationship between Margaret and her boyfriend Colin it's the relationship she had with her late father that has shaped her and there are other great examples of interactions between co-workers, strangers on trains and so on.

I enjoyed it very much, in a way it seemed to ramble on without a plot but seemed like a coherent whole by the end of the book.

beautiful writing very cosy even if the subject matter wasn’t
