This is elegant and raw and life-affirming, although their are very powerful moments of suicide ideolation.
This is truly a book born from the sociological, environmental, economical and political trauma currently being experienced globally with heavy influences of Grenfell, and Rasict tragedies from recent years. It addresses anxiety and trauma but provides a route map through it. And it is endlessly quotable. If this doesn't get nominated for all the prizes and win at least half of them I will be shocked.
