Separated from her husband and young son, Ellen leaves behind the loneliness of London for a new life of excitement and sexual freedom: a 'jaunt into iniquity' on the gorgeous French Riviera.

However, she soon discovers that independence blurs into loneliness, especially when she receives some heart-breaking news ...

First published in 1965 and subsequently banned in several countries, Edna O'Brien's August is a Wicked Month is a taboo-breaking tale of a woman rediscovering herself.
