“The book is consistently exciting, invigorating, challenging, surprising. It’s also very funny, Sweeney Byrne mining bright diamonds of humour from the black mud of her anxiety, suffering and morbid boredom. And she writes brilliantly”
“The voice is hugely self-aware, unafraid of turning her sharp light inward ... the details are vivid and the atmosphere tense throughout.”
