Well you and her.

It's 1995. Outside the filthy window, the city rushes by. But up in the flat, there is only Eily and Stephen, 19 and 40. Only their bodies, the churning bedsheets. Pagodas of takeaway boxes. The total obsession of new love.

18 months later, and the flat feels different. Their world is merging with the common place. The scars of the past are intruding. Stray emotions you've neglected to secure. Ambitions and secrets still to confess. And now Gracie, Stephen's 17-year-old daughter, is about to arrive.

The city changes its face.
