Nina Gilligan // Sheffield Plate, Sheffield

The kids have gone, the house is quiet, and the spare bedroom has become a land grab.
Freedom is scary, and Nina is quietly losing her mind while pretending everything is absolutely fine… until it isn’t. After a lemoncake incident, Nina is banned from using heavy machinery. What follows is flirting with priests, turning to witchcraft and recreational substances — and the realisation that empty nesting is less gentle clearing and more violent reinventing.
Warm, sharp and self-aware, Nina Gilligan is back with a hilarious, unfiltered celebration of what it means to be a mature woman — standing in the wreckage of self-discovery and hoping there is a recipe that works.
It’s not a breakdown. It’s a lemoncake moment.
