Synopsis :

'Ida was almost asleep when she realised what was wrong. It was so simple she could barely believe it. She was the play, wasn t she? It wasn t just her stupid name. And if it was so terrible, so irrelevant, then what on earth was she?' Almost 30 and entirely irresponsible, Ida Irons returns home for her mothers funeral. It s the first time she s been back, or seen her younger sister Alice, in many years. Their mother was the caustic and secretive writer Bridie Adair, who named Ida after her infamous play. While Ida has been struggling to escape its shadow, Alice has been dealing with problems of her own. Forced to confront their fractured relationship, the sisters question their own troubling memories and the story behind the strange, violent play that bears Ida s name. Who really was the other Ida?
