At the start of the new millennium, Kat is looking forward to her future. She's bright, and kind-hearted, and she's happy in her lesbian identity. Her gap year after finishing school has been spent with a wealthy academic couple, travelling to Florence and Boston, and she's returned to England with a sophistication beyond her years. Yet, as she waits to start university, destiny seems determined to confound her hopes.
Eulogy for Love follows Kat over two decades, as she first encounters a friendship that might have been much more, then a marriage that proves not what she had expected. As Kat had learned in Florence, Dis aliter visum: the Gods had other plans.
Eulogy for Love is an exploration of love, life, and sex in the Middle England of the first two decades of the 21st century. It centres on a love story and ends like a thriller, but it's also an exploration of muddled and poisonous notions of masculinity, and their effects on women.
