The Mahogany Pod
a memoir of endings and beginnings
Coming 11 February 2021, The Mahogany Pod is a deeply moving account of falling in love with someone who only has a few months to live. Through honest prose, Jill Hopper’s story explores the joy and pain of loving and losing, and the beginnings that come after endings. “Affecting and beautifully written.” – The Bookseller, Editor’s Choice.
