"A stunning tale." --Booklist, STARRED review for How to Be Remembered
For readers of Rebecca Serle's In Five Years and Nikki Erlick's The Measure, Michael Thompson's romantic magical realism will have you smiling, laughing, crying, and questioning: If you knew how long your loved ones would live, would you tell them?
Dr Charlie Knight fears life is passing him by. He's in his late thirties, and treading water as a family doctor in the same small town he grew up in.
Just as he's planning his escape, something changes. He develops a gift, an extraordinary insight for any doctor: a sense of exactly how many days his patients have left to live.
But in a country town like Marwick, his patients are his friends. His own family. The people he grew up with, and the girl he still loves.
And Charlie discovers this gift may not be a gift at all.
Michael Thompson spent fifteen years working in the Australian media, where he won multiple awards for radio and journalism. His time is now divided between writing books and podcasting from his home in Sydney, where he lives with his wife and two children. All the Perfect Days is his second novel. Michael's first book, How to Be Remembered, was published internationally in 2023, translated into seven languages, and is currently being adapted into a film.
