The newest novel from Valerie Martin, winner of the Women's Prize for Fiction

'Beguiling' The Times

'Utterly brilliant' Daily Mail

'Intelligent, quick-witted and curious' Irish Times

1954. Nineteen years old, beautiful and blind since birth, Caritá has taken control of her life by leaving home and working in Mrs Gulliver's reputed and exclusive brothel. On her first night there she meets Ian Drohan, a young and wealthy idealist who falls madly in love with her, and is determined to save her from this employment. But does Caritá need saving?

A delightful entanglement of star-crossed lovers, gangsters and chase across tropical paradise, Mrs Gulliver is an entertaining escapade of two women forging their place in the world.
