A wonderful debut novel from an author with a very bright future. Assured, warm and funny, 'Bed Rest' will be a must-read book of 2007. In this humorous and touching debut, Sarah Bilston examines what happens to a first-time mother who becomes imprisoned in her flat due to prenatal complications. Q is a young English lawyer married to an American and living in New York. She's ticked off most of the boxes on her list of Things To Do Before I'm Thirty and her life so far has been relatively painless. But when her doctor tells her she must spend the last three months of her pregnancy lying in bed, Q is thrown into a tailspin - her social life must stop and the inertia that follows plunges her relationship with her friends, family and husband into chaos.
