The Sunday Times No. 1 bestselling memoir from the author of HAMNET and THE MARRIAGE PORTRAIT. With an introduction by Ann Patchett.
I Am, I Am, I Am is novelist Maggie O'Farrell's unputdownable story of a life told in near-death experiences. A childhood illness she was not expected to survive. A terrifying encounter on a remote path. A mismanaged labour in an understaffed hospital. An ongoing struggle to protect a child from a condition that leaves her daily vulnerable.
Insightful, inspirational, gorgeously written, it is a book to devour at a sitting - a story you finish newly conscious of life's fragility, determined to make every heartbeat count.
'Leaves the reader feeling breathless, grateful and fully alive' Ann Patchett
'A rare talent to enthral... It will leave you bereft and wanting more' Sunday Times
'It is absolutely, in every possible sense of the word, brilliant' Max Porter
'I have never read a book about death that has made me feel so alive' Tracy Chevalier
