Tilda Is Visible
A novel about women, life and being seen
By Jane Tara
Harry Hartog's review
Tilda first notices she has invisibility when she looks down at her keyboard and notices her little finger missing. She can feel her finger but not see it. Soon other parts of her body disappear and she's inevitably diagnosed with Invisibility, a little heard of condition afflicting mainly middle aged women. Tilda is determined invisibility will not be her fate and starts looking for a cure. This is a funny, heartfelt journey about female friendships, self acceptance and redefining what it is to age. Clever, laugh-out-loud funny and sincere. - GG, Harry Hartog Macquarie

When Tilda Finch is diagnosed with invisibility, she's not overly surprised - she's felt invisible for years. She has a good life and a successful business selling inspirational quotes on merchandise. But she's never really recovered from her divorce. Or, if she's honest, her childhood. Tilda's past has taken a toll and she's lost sight of herself. Now, with the possibility of completely disappearing, she must face the trauma of her past and rewrite the way she perceives the world, and herself.
Entertaining, hilarious and poignant, Tilda Is Visible addresses the power of our thoughts and how childhood trauma shapes our adult experience.
