Shortlisted for The Guardian’s 2016 Not the Booker Prize
‘This is a wonderful book. Intriguing, moving, absorbing. It explores universal emotions, and particular feelings. It's also a great read.’
-Daniel Finkelstein, The Times
‘A terrific novel by an accomplished writer, and deserves to cause a stir, with its brutally topical setting and the frank, poignant and bitter-sweet stories of its main characters. Loved it, and would strongly recommend it.’
