Product Information
An O: the Oprah Magazine Best Book of 2017 'Khong is a magician ... Brilliant' Lauren Groff, author of Fates and Furies 'Khong's first novel sneaks up on you - just like life, illness and heartbreak. And love. A million small, human and often deeply funny details gather force to tell a tale that is ultimately, incredibly poignant' Miranda July, author of The First Bad Man Ruth is thirty and her life is falling apart: she and her fiance are moving house, but he's moving out to live with another woman; her career is going nowhere; and then she learns that her father, a history professor beloved by his students, has Alzheimer's. At Christmas, her mother begs her to stay on and help. For a year. Goodbye, Vitamin is the wry, beautifully observed story of a woman at a crossroads, as Ruth and her friends attempt to shore up her father's career; she and her mother obsess over the ambiguous health benefits - in the absence of a cure - of dried jellyfish supplements and vitamin pills; and they all try to forge a new relationship with the brilliant, childlike, irascible man her father has become. 'A beautifully written debut, dreamy and funny ... flawless' Independent 'Biting, funny and poignant and makes you wish you'd thought of writing it first' Stylist, '50 Unmissable Books' 'Like a chain of fairy lights in the darkness' Financial Times 'One of the funniest elegiac novels I have ever read' David Leavitt, author of The Lost Language of Cranes 'This small miracle of a novel about family, friendship and memory is equal parts laugh-out-loud hilarious and acutely moving... a tender, brilliantly original storytelling style that's completely her own...has reinvented the slacker comedy to produce a wry, witty and heartfelt family drama - a complete joy to read' - Stella Charls, Readings A quietly brilliant disquisition . . . told in prose that is so startling in its spare beauty that I found myself thinking about Khong's turns of phrase for days after I finished reading. -Doree Shafrir, The New York Times Book Review 'A beautifully observed story about family, relationships and memories.' Australian Women's Weekly 'moving and funny account of a young woman's life-changing year back home with her parents.' Sunday Star Times 'Rachel Khong's novel is both moving and laugh-out-loud funny.' Sunday Age Laura Kroetsch, the outgoing Adelaide Festival Artistic director picked Goodbye Vitamin as one of her best picks for summer 2018 reads and said this about it: 'For something less sinister, read Rachel Khong's utterly gorgeous Goodbye, Vitamin, the story of a young woman, Ruth, who returns to help her mother care for her father, recently diagnosed with Alzheimer's. As her father deteriorates, Ruth discovers the diary he kept as she was growing up; together, the two stories make for a wry and often poignant meditation on memory.' One of those rare books that is both devastating and light-hearted, heartful and joyful. . . . Don't miss it. -Buzzfeed

They are replacing one that they still have in stock though unfortunately are unable to do so for the other three so are issuing a refund for these.
