Emily Haworth-Booth's debut novel "Mare" follows a childless woman confronting early menopause and creative block who becomes consumed by caring for a horse she doesn't own at a local stable. The Guardian review praises the novel for its exploration of love, motherhood, and care through the narrator's intimate but ultimately unknowable relationship with the animal.
