«The Hive» is Gill Hornby's novel, published by Abacus in paperback, in English.
At St Ambrose Primary School, the children's school life takes a back seat to the relationships among their mothers. Over the course of the school year, these women form alliances, compete for social standing and deal with rumours and petty betrayals, all told with humour and irony in a seemingly idyllic setting.
The novel was one of the candidates for the Guardian First Book Award in 2013. The original edition dates from 2013; this edition from 2014.
For reading groups and readers of contemporary fiction who appreciate British humour and social dynamics.
