Recensione:
Praise for Gavin Extence's previous novels (-)
[Extence] captures how the illness feels from the inside with sensitivity and sparkling humour. In Abby he has created a warm, funny and relatable heroine (Daily Express)
Insightful and sensitive, Extence describes with the lightest of touches what it's like to live with bipolar (Sunday Express)
Extence really brings Abby to life in this honest, uequivocal narrative...There is something curiously cathartic about this book, as well as having the bravery, touching honesty and memorable protagonist that Extence is making his trademark (Heat)
Warm and funny and tragic and uplifting all in one. Extence should be on everyone's radar (Jasper Fforde)
One of the funniest and most heartbreaking double acts in ages . . . an exceptionally good debut novel 5* (Heat)
This is a genuinely hilarious read, but also a deeply moving story about childhood, neurology and mortality (Daily Telegraph)
Descrizione del libro:
