A viscerally vulnerable, raw and relatable, intensely intimate novel for our times. Genuinely new, bold and fascinating. Anoushka Warden is a true talent and a real artist. - Author & Host of THE GUILTY FEMINISTUnlike anything I've ever read before-laugh-out-loud funny, brutally honest... I loved every minute of it.Such a raw, funny, visceral and heartbreaking book... A brilliantly original book that pulls zero punches.There is a fantastically compulsive quality to Anoushka Warden's writing and her fictional world, as shockingly funny as it is tender and revealing about love, relationships, sex and womanhood. It is not only a book that speaks to so many young women today but also a candid, fun and moving read. - Former literary editor of the Independent, currently chief theatre critic at The Guardian[Warden's] novel about a woman who unapologetically wants to live by her own rules feels really radical. The woman's fight against a world that wants to contain her is often very funny, sometimes painful, and highly unique. Her writing about sex is among the most daring I've read, centring female desire and sexuality while never being scared of embracing its messiness. - Arts Editor, The Independent
