Modern & contemporary fiction (post c 1945)

Praise for Flesh And Blood

  • A strong savour of ORLANDO about it- that is, of Woolf at her most flirtatious, bold and Colette-ish. - INDEPENDENT ON SUNDAY

  • A wonderful feat... the descriptive writing, the sheer joy of words... - DAILY TELEGRAPH

  • Some of the most voloptuous language since Joyce... so rich, so crammed with stories, imagination and visions. - DAILY MAIL

  • A wildly inventive exploration of the mother-daughter relationship, by the wonderful Michele Roberts. - Joanna Trollope
