Graceful and haunting
Lovely, surprising... filled with life and optimism and a wicked sense of comedy... deeply satisfying.
Unexpected and exciting
She excels in excavating single moments to powerfully show the profound in the prosaic.
The Street is a hugely enjoyable little book that is just a joy.
