Since their birth, twin sisters Rose and Ruby Darlen have been known simply as “The Girls” Raised by Aunt Lovey, they have lived all their lives in the small town of Leaford.
For Rose and Ruby are conjoined twins, connected inseperably.

Now nearing 30, Rose and Ruby are soon to be history’s oldest conjoined twins, and Rose decides it is time to write the story of her short but extrodinary life. As Ruby watches Rose write her memoirs, she decides she wants to tell her part too; for though they are as close as two people can be, their lives and voices are wonderfully powerful and distinct. Every experience of growing up comes rushing through in their telling, their first loves, their painful choices, losses and triumphs-but evry experience is doubles sometimes joyfully and sometimes painfully.

The Girls charts the depths of a miraculous friendship, unsettling and beautiful in its closeness. As the two stories parallel, diverge, and intertwine, building to an unforgettable conclusion, Lansens aims at the heart of human experience and the fundamental joy of connection.

Lori Lansens has written several films and is the author of the acclaimed novel Rush Home Road . This is her Second Book.

Pete was born in Warrington to an Irish mother and an English father and spent happy summer holidays in Cork. Years later, reflecting on the many places he has visited as a travel broadcaster, Pete admits that he feels more at home in Ireland than anywhere.
