The heartbreaking new novel from the internationally best-selling author of Fall on Your Knees and The Way The Crow Flies.

'Ann-Marie MacDonald captures the dark hilarity of parenthood like nobody else. I gulped down Adult Onset in a single day.' (Emma Donoghue, author of Room)

Mary Rose McKinnon has two children with her partner, Hilary, and a fractured relationship with her mother, Dolly; she also has issues with anger management and lives in fear of hurting the children. These feelings seem somehow rooted in a part of her childhood she has trouble remembering.

Is Dolly - the kind of big personality who makes all Mary Rose's friends, and even waiters in coffee shops, exclaim 'I love your Mum!' - really harbouring a dark secret about what caused Mary Rose's childhood injuries, and is Mary Rose doomed to follow the same path with her own children?

Adult Onset is a heartbreaking, hilarious, hugely satisfying novel about family ties and the joy and agony of parenthood. Ann-Marie MacDonald gets under the reader's skin and gives voice to the feelings we have all experienced but may never have examined.
