Synopsis

The Understudy

Nora Vale has been the understudy for eleven years.

When she gets the call to replace her colleague on press night, she knows the role perfectly.
She has been living inside it for six weeks.

The play is called The Quiet Woman. It is about a woman who made herself smaller and
smaller inside a relationship until she was no longer recognizable to herself.
It is written by Elliot Marsh — the man Nora spent three years with.
It is written from what she told him.
He never asked.

Over the course of one extraordinary press night, Nora must decide what it means to perform
your own life — and who the performance belongs to when it's done.

The Understudy is a beautifully constructed novel about art, ownership, and the long
work of reclaiming a self. For anyone who has ever had their story told without their permission.

— For readers of Maggie O'Farrell, Celeste Ng, and Otessa Moshfegh —
