SHORTLISTED FOR THE WOMEN'S PRIZE FOR FICTION 2018LONGLISTED FOR THE WELLCOME BOOK PRIZE 2019'A stunning debut' GuardianIn Jessie Greengrass' superb debut novel our unnamed narrator recounts her progress to motherhood while remembering the death of her own mother ten years before and the childhood summers she spent with her psychoanalyst grandmother.Woven among these personal recollections are significant events in medical history: Wilhelm Röntgen's discovery of the X-ray Sigmund Freud's development of psychoanalysis and the work that he did with his daughter Anna and the origins of modern surgery and the anatomy of pregnant bodies.Sight is a novel about being a parent and a child: what it is like to bring a person in to the world and what it is to let one go. Exquisitely written and fiercely intelligent it is an incisive exploration of how we see others and how we might know ourselves.
