Jen is desperate for life to begin, but her first love relationships are so devastating that she believes she is jinxed.

Do not love me. Be warned! I am Jinx. No one is safe from heartache. Not Jen, Jen's mother, Jen's father (the Rat), or her friends and neighbours.

Each yearns for connection, but love can't always stay. And Jen's first encounters leave her fractured, reckless - no longer Jen, but Jinx.

Young or old, everyone in Jen's life has a story to tell. Margaret Wild reveals the essence of their lives in this fine, fierce, deeply compassionate novel of loss, longing, courage and joy.
