'A writer for whom language is an end not a means, a beginning not an end.' Jeanette Winterson
'A writer of remarkable power and originality.' Times Literary Supplement
'Day. Another. London city and world. There before me as you were. I still see you as I saw you and long to be you, as I was you, all the way over again.'
