it's real life!

'Patrick is unafraid of the vicissitudes of emotion, setting the atmosphere ablaze in a display of manic irony that is simultaneously hopeless, poignant and visceral'

um absolutely impeccable book post today from Granta Books with Leslie Jamison’s SPLINTERS & K Patrick’s THREE BIRTHS ~ two of my most anticipated books for this year from writers who never fail to make me want to write

To anyone that hasn't heard from me in...a year, maybe more?! Proud of this and proud to have worked with the total genius that is Rachael Allen. Poems are hard! I love them.

Having fun choosing our Books of the Year here at Gay's The Word . The six I've selected are all novels and gave me hours of pleasure. My colleagues will be posting their choices over the next few days. All books are listed on our website. Enjoy.
