Melissa Harrison recommends
thumb
Coward (2022)
Tim Clare
"Funny, fascinating, brilliant and brave, Coward isn't a self-help guide to beating anxiety - it's far more valuable than that."
thumb
Melmoth (2018)
Sarah Perry
"Richly atmospheric, daring and surprising, Melmoth seals Sarah Perry's place as chief architect of literature's gothic revival."
