'A masterpiece' Guardian'I really admire and love this book' Sally Rooney'An intellectual and emotional rollercoaster' Daily Mail'I can't remember the last time I laughed so much reading a book' David Sedaris'It moved me to tears' Elizabeth DayTHE ONLY BOOK SHORTLISTED FOR BOTH THE BOOKER PRIZE AND THE WOMEN'S PRIZE FOR FICTION 2021______________________________________________This is a story about a life lived in two halves.It's about what happens when real life collides with the increasing absurdity of a world accessed through a screen.It's about living in world that contains both an abundance of proof that there is goodness, empathy, and justice in the universe, and a deluge of evidence to the contrary.It's a meditation on love, language and human connection from one of the most original voices of our time.______________________________________________'An utterly distinctive mixture of depth, dazzling linguistic richness, anarchic wit and raw emotional candour' Rowan Williams
