Molly is now in her eighties and she helps her grand-daughters Cara and Freya bring up their young children with unstinting care. But her own children, particularly her daughter Eileen, are her life's great failure: unhappy, self-indulgent women who resent the younger generation's apparent freedom from guilt and their unconventional family arrangements. This intricate web of female relationships comes under terrible strain when Molly, her health sapped by her constant efforts on behalf of others, decides to consult the family solicitor about changing her will.

Written for boys who like to eat other people's sorrows, or not eat at all, and for girls who love them regardless.

We’re Jumping Tomorrow is an intimate, hauntingly poetic novella designed to be listened to in one sitting, like stumbling upon a stranger’s tragic story online, finding empathy for them, and then scrolling away.
