Brown, Natasha

Lean and electrifying, the novel invites readers to confront the contradictions shaping contemporary life. Intellectually bracing, grim, and humorous, it’s a must-read for people who appreciate nuanced storytelling with a critical lens on modern issues.

As much portraiture and piercing social commentary as it is narrative, this affecting work is like no novel you have ever read. For all readers wanting to deepen their understanding of identity issues and/or the formal possibilities of fiction.
