From Nick Alexander, named by Amazon UK as the #3 bestselling indy Kindle author, a fresh new number 1 hit. Over 150,000 copies sold. Praise for Nick Alexander's Writing Endearingly funny, bang up to date and spot on the truth -- Red. Honest, moving, witty and really rather wise -- Time Out. Wonderfully compelling with a high standard of writing -- Liz Loves Books A truly riveting read -- Crooks on Books "From the author of the The French House, The Half-Life of Hannah and The Case of The Missing Boyfriend, Nick Alexander’s latest #1 bestseller, The Photographer's Wife, is an epic tale set in two eras, a tale of the secrets one generation has, rightly or wrongly, chosen to hide from the next." Barbara – a child of the Blitz – has more secrets than she cares to admit. She has protected her children from many of the harsh realities of life and told them little of the poverty of her childhood, nor of the darker side of her marriage to one of Britain's most famous photographers. With such an incomplete picture of the past, her youngest, Sophie, has struggled to understand who her parents really are, and in turn, Barbara sometimes worries, to build her own identity. When Sophie decides to organise a vast retrospective exhibition of her adored father's work, old photos are pulled from dusty boxes. But with them tumble stories from the past, stories and secrets that will challenge every aspect of how Sophie sees her parents.

1 of 1 people found the following review helpful. Really good read By ElaineG The Photographer’s Wife is my third outing with Nick Alexander and he is turning out to be an author I really like. This is the story of Barbara and her daughter Sophie. Sophie is trying to persuade her mother to help her with an exhibition of her late father’s photography, something Barbara is reluctant to get involved with and for very good reasons.The story is told in two time frames, and I particularly loved the parts of the book that told Barbara’s life story. We first meet her as a five year old during the blitz and follow her throughout her life until the present day in a fantastic series of “snapshots” of family life during the second half of the twentieth century. It has a very authentic feel to it and I really liked the author’s attention to detail. During these sections we follow Barbara’s life with Tony and very slowly all the family’s secrets are revealed to us, if not to Sophie herself. They are very subtly brought to the fore as the author takes us almost to the point of reveal and then leads us to draw our own conclusions. Barbara is a fabulous character who really grows throughout the read and I really liked her.By contrast, it took me a while to “get” Sophie. I never really got a clear mental picture of her in my head and was wondering for some time as to how old she is. She is actually in her forties but she never felt like someone of that age, but came across as someone much younger. I had similar feelings about her boyfriend Brett. We are told he is American but I never felt like I was reading about an American, apart from the times he said “Gee”. I also found it difficult to age him, and it was only the fact that he was going bald that gave me any clues, although that in itself is not necessarily conclusive. From the moment we met him he just came across as a slimy sleezeball and I could never understand what Sophie saw in him.However, putting that to one side, this is a story that really captured my imagination and drew me in; one that I thoroughly enjoyed.
