Super Host (Broché)

Bennett Driscoll is a Turner Prize—nominated artist who was once a rising star. Now, age fifty-five, his wife has left him, Ire hasn't sold a painting in two years, and his gallery wants to stop selling his work, claiming they'll have more value retrospectively... when he's dead. So, left with a large West London home and no income, he's forced to move into his artist's studio in the back garden and list his house on the popular vacation rental site, AirBed.
A stranger in his own home, with his daughter, Mia, off at art school, and any new relationships fizzling out at best, Bennett struggles to find purpose in his day-to-day. That all changes when three different guests—lonely American Alicia ; tortured artist Emma ; and cautiously optimistic divorcée Kirstie—unwittingly unlock the pieces of himself that have been lost to him for too long. Warm, witty, and utterly humane, Super Host offers a captivating portrait of middle age, relationships, and what it truly means to take a new chance at life.
