Simon Wroe recommends

Enter the Aardvark (2020)
Jessica Anthony
"A feverish, rollicking beast of a book. Totally assured, completely unpredictable, Jessica Anthony has created a true original."

In Our Mad and Furious City (2018)
Guy Gunaratne
"A blazing, swaggering, polyphonic debut. Here is London through the eyes of those 'with elsewhere in their blood'. Gunaratne has a ventriloquist's command of voice, a film-maker's eye, and talent to burn."
