Bu e-kitob haqida
'This wove a spell on me' – Marian Keyes
'F***ing brilliant' – Daisy May Cooper
___________
Meet Gosia.
She's a sensitive soul with a filthy mind and problems with intimacy.
Between shifts in a well-lit budget supermarket and nights in a badly lit Zone 3 flatshare, she spends hours inside her own head. That is, until a chance encounter snaps her out of her reverie.
Propelled into a series of mediocre jobs, lousy dates and even worse sex, the prickly yet warm-hearted Gosia begins her excavation of the 'perfect' life so many dream of.
After all, could there be more to it than she imagined?
Raw, funny, mean and moving, Odd Hours is a razor-sharp social comedy about human connection, unexpected happiness, and the many forms of love.
___________
'A hymn to normality and an absolute joy to read' – Sarah May
'Compelling, surprising, funny' – Kate Sawyer
'Bas writes so well about that state of being young and trying so hard to make connections' – Marianne Levy
'Dark, sharply funny and utterly rewarding ... Reminded me of the brilliant books by Kirsty Capes ... Highly recommended' – Liz Hyder
'F***ing brilliant' – Daisy May Cooper

Muallif haqida
Ania Bas grew up in Poland and moved to the UK 15 years ago to pursue a career in the arts. She has worked with Tate, Whitechapel Gallery and others as a socially engaged artist and arts organiser, working directly with disadvantaged communities to help them have their voices heard and realities understood. She began writing Odd Hours on the Faber Academy 'Writing a Novel' course. It is inspired by her early experiences in the UK: as a tenant in an eight-person house share (with one bathroom), years in low-paid jobs, and multiple encounters of xenophobia.
