My appreciation for Levy is growing the more I read. Although I can't say I always 'love' all of her books, they are often very transporting and she captures the nuances of life and domesticity well. Enjoyed these memoir vignettes.

This was just absolutely stunning. I devoured it in a few hours, just completely enraptured by the way Deborah Levy writes about life and living and the past and cruelty and isolation. I loved it so much.
