THE RED OF MY BLOOD
A few weeks before Christmas, Clover's sister Nell Gifford, founder of Gifford’s Circus, died of breast cancer, aged forty-six. Just days before, she had been given years to live. Nell’s sudden death split Clover's life apart. The Red of My Blood charts Clover's fearless passage through the first year after her sister's death. It is a book about what life feels like when death interrupts it, and about bearing the unbearable and describing an experience that seems beyond words. Lyrical, hopeful, it is also about the magical way in which death and life exist so vividly beside one another, and the wonder of being human.

‘Clover writes with visceral honesty about the lived experience of her grief for her sister Nell - in all its hues; moving swiftly between darkness and light whilst her love for Nell remains powerfully alive and present.’ - JULIA SAMUEL

‘One of the most haunting, gripping books I've read in recent memory… knife-sharp, beautiful, and profound. This is a masterful memoir.’ - MADELINE MILLER, author of The Song of Achilles and Circe

‘Sensationally beautiful... She is as golden as her sister clearly was.’ - LAURA CUMMING, author of On Chapel Sands
