Luke Kennard recommends

Clinical Intimacy (2024)
Ewan Gass
"A truly original literary mystery, and a bold meditation on care, judgement and exploitation . . . Like the best really serious novels, it's profoundly uncomfortable, avoids easy dramatic answers and forces you to really think and question - yourself as much as its own narrative. An unmissable debut."

My First Book (2024)
Honor Levy
"Levy negotiates the great wave of information overload with a deceptively effortless grace... So funny and sharp, the kind of characters you either want to scream at or buy a drink... Beautifully, intoxicatingly written, and somehow so knowing that it comes full circle to a hard-won wisdom and compassion. Exhilarating, and as significant a definition of a cultural era and its disaffected main players as Generation X was in its time."

Hourglass (2022)
Keiran Goddard
"Shockingly intimate and devastatingly funny, bleak and true."
