Day in the Life of Emma Cunningham

On a sweltering summer day in York, thirty-five-year-old Dr. Emma Cunningham is preparing to leave for her prestigious new role as a surgical resident at York’s Children’s Hospital. The feminist movement had allowed woman to start to earn equal pay for equal work. An accomplished and elegant woman, Emma seemingly has it all: a refined lifestyle, a successful husband —James Cunningham—and a son and lovely daughter who is more interested in chatting with her friends than dealing with Peter. As the day unfolds, disaster strikes—a flood in the house—while James remains detached, tinkering in the backyard shed. Amidst the chaos, a new flame, Timothy Hade, appears unexpectedly, awakening long-buried questions about the choices she’s made and the life she’s built. With the help of loyal friends and observant neighbours such as Martha, Emma must navigate a storm of memories, truths, and revelations. Could this one day change everything? And will she dare to let the new man change everything. Will either Mr Cunningham or Mr Timothy be there on her first day? It is a story about the lovers and rich memories that shape us.
