Aprašymas
Renting is a nightmare...Áine should be feeling happy with her life. She’s just moved in with Elliot. Their new flat is in an affluent neighbourhood, surrounded by bakeries, yoga studios and organic vegetable shops. They even have a garden. And yet, from the moment they move in, Áine can't shake the sense that there's something not quite right about the place...
It's not just the humourless estate agent and nameless it's the chill that seeps through the draughty windows; the damp spreading from the cellar door; the way the organic fruit and veg never lasts as long as it should. And most of all, it's the upstairs neighbours, whose very existence makes peaceful coexistence very difficult indeed.
The longer Áine spends inside the flat - pretending to work from home; dissecting messages from the friends whose lives seem to have moved on without her - the less it feels like home. And as Áine fixates on the cracks in the ceiling, it becomes harder to ignore the cracks in her relationship with Elliott...
Brilliantly observed and darkly funny, I Want to Go Home But I’m Already There is a ghost story set in the rental crisis. A wonderfully clear-eyed portrait of loneliness, loss and belonging, it examines what it means to feel at home.
'A deeply compelling and melancholic modern ghost story ... Examines with piercing precision and wry humour the insidiousness, malignancy, and all-encompassing bleakness of the housing market' SUSANNAH DICKEY, AUTHOR OF COMMON DECENCY
'Beautifully written, frequently hilarious, and maddeningly real' SEAMAS O'REILLY, AUTHOR OF DID YE HEAR MAMMY DIED
'Very funny and original ... Rife with sharply observed but subtle insights on class and money' RACHEL CONNOLLY, AUTHOR OF LAZY CITY
'Róisín Lanigan has been threatening to be the next great Irish writer for ages, so I'm glad she's finally sat down and done it' JOEL GOLBY
