A raw, startling, genre-defying novel of friendship, sex, and love in the new millennium. Perfect for fans of Jennifer Egan, Joan Didion, Melissa Banks, and Leanne Shapton.
Sheila Heti is the author of ten books, including the novels Pure Colour, Motherhood and How Should a Person Be?, which New York magazine deemed one of the 'New Classics' of the twenty-first century and which was longlisted for the Women's Prize for Fiction. Her novels have been translated into twenty-four languages. She lives in Toronto and Kawartha Lakes, Ontario.
Witty, unusual, raw...a powerful read...a classic in the making
*Stylist*
Original...hilarious... Part confessional, part play, part novel,
and more-it's one wild ride...Think HBO'S Girls in book form
*Marie Claire*
Amazing
*Lena Dunham*
A shamelessly funny read
*Grazia*
Funny, bawdy and fiercely original
*Easy Living*
A sharp and unsentimental chronicle of what it is like to be a
20-something now
*Economist*
A book that risks everything... Complex, artfully messy, and
hilarious
*Miranda July*
Uniquely honest, funny and clever... Heti is superbly truthful and
shockingly funny - no words were minced in the making of this
strange, brilliant book
*The Times*
Joyously self-conscious…profoundly ironic…or, perhaps more
accurately, it is a production profoundly concerned with how to
live authentically in a world saturated by irony
*New Statesman*
Utterly beguiling: blunt, charming, funny, and smart. Heti subtly
weaves together ideas about sex, femininity and artistic ambition.
Reading this genre-defying book was pure pleasure
*David Shields, author of Reality Hunger*
