Nothing To See

by Pip Adam

A gritty and poignant exploration of addiction, recovery, and the search for connection in contemporary New Zealand.

In Wellington, New Zealand, Peggy and Greta navigate the challenges of sobriety, attending meetings, and grappling with their past. From sharing a single bowl of Tom Yum to volunteering at the Salvation Army and facing the temptations of their old lives, they strive to build a new future. As they navigate complex relationships with each other and those around them, including their troubled flatmates Heidi and Dell, they confront the harsh realities of poverty, trauma, and the search for meaning.

Spanning decades, Nothing to See delves into the lives of these women as they grapple with addiction, social issues, and the ever-present struggle for survival. This compelling novel explores themes of resilience, identity, and the enduring power of human connection in a world that often prefers to look away. Perfect for readers of literary fiction, character-driven stories, and works exploring contemporary social issues.
