  When Frank’s wife of many years is killed in a car accident and he is left badly injured, he quickly grows tired of life. No longer wishing to be a burden on his daughters who are missing out on their own lives by having to care for him, he hatches a plan. 
  Heading off out onto the mean streets of New York, the city he grew up in, Frank decides that he will find a way to end his life there without resorting to the sin of taking it himself. 
  However, his plans are thrown into confusion when he bumps into an old friend, Carlo. In years gone by Frank had helped Carlo, who was part of the Mafia, with fraudulent insurance claims but had turned his back on a life of crime, leading to Carlo being demoted by his bosses. 
  Now, the two old friends catch up on past times as Frank’s plans for his final hours slowly draw closer. But Carlo has a dark secret that he has kept from Frank. The resentment he had been carrying after being betrayed by his friend had been allowed to fester and boil to the surface, and now he is about to reveal the full shocking truth of his actions to him. 
  How will Frank react? Will he still be able to find a way to end his life on his terms? Or is that nagging feeling at the back of his mind about to show him something terrifying?

  ‘Brave and beautiful.’ Stylist Magazine‘Social media’s answer to Carol Ann Duffy’ Sunday Times STYLE‘Divine.’ Cecelia Ahern 
  This audiobook includes exclusive introductions to a select number of Charly’s poems, an interview between herself and her friend, Jack Harries, and music from Tom Rosenthal. 
  She Must be Mad explores coming-of-age: the pain and beauty of love, the relief and the agony of turning from girl to woman, the isolation of an untethered mind and the power and subjugation of the body. 
  Charly captures the formative experiences of today’s young women from the poignant to the prosaic in writing that is at once witty, wry and heartfelt. Wayward nights out that don’t go as planned; the righteous anger at those men with no talent or skill or smarts who occupy the most powerful positions in the world; the strange banality of madness and, of course, the hurt and indecision of unrequited love. 
  For every woman surviving and thriving in today’s world, for every girl who feels too much; this is a call for communion, and you are not alone. 
  In She Must Be Mad, Charly Cox, one of the best English authors, delves into the themes of love, loss, and the transition from girl to woman. Her poetry, filled with grief and the complexities of the human mind, is a testament to her talent and the power of her words. 
  For fans of Ana Sampson (She is Fierce), Baek Sehee (I Want to Die but I Want to Eat Tteokbokki), Dolly Alderton (Everything I Know About Love), Rupi Kaur (Milk and Honey), and Courtney Peppernell (Watering the Soul).
