"'She writes like an angel and thinks like the devil. Joughin is a major discovery'" -- Fay Weldon "'An exciting new talent'" Sunday Telegraph "'Sheena Joughin has an unusual clarity of voice and a crafty duality, something both brooding and light, in her writing. The hurts and nastinesses between her characters are paralleled with a casual persistence of good nature and good humour in this funny, piercing book about lostness, childishness and growing up'" -- Ali Smith The Times Literary Supplement "'Very funny, very edgy, very acute. I love this book'" -- Julie Burchill "'[Joughin] is already a mistress of mordant comedy... a talent to watch'" Daily Mail
