Set in 1970s Britain, The Best of Everything follows Paulette, an auxiliary nurse from St Kitts whose carefully planned life unravels after her partner Denton suddenly dies, revealing unexpected truths. As Paulette wrestles with grief, she finds solace with Denton’s friend Garfield and becomes mother to his grandson, Nellie. Kit de Waal’s warm, nuanced prose weaves humor and tenderness into a moving exploration of loss, forgiveness, and the transformative power of kindness
