«A stunning memoir, hard reading in places, but it feels urgent and necessary . . . White writes like a blood-stained angel»
Cathy Rentzenbrink, * The Times *
«A breathtaking read . . . her honesty and her eloquence is the thing that makes it such a privilege to read . . . a raw, shocking, beautiful book»
DOLLY ALDERTON, * The High Low *
«Coming Undone by Terri White is possibly the most affecting, moving memoir I've ever read. Painful and exquisite, her writing about how childhood trauma shaped her got to me in a very visceral way. It's a remarkable book»
MARIAN KEYES
«Raw and remarkable»
* Guardian, Book of the Year *
«Powerful and moving, beautifully written, packed with stunning set-pieces and, I thought, a stinging-but-dazzling, complicated love-hate letter to NYC, and to how our dreams can too often deceive us. I found it bittersweet and raw, and radical as a memoir narrative: not so much a redemption tale as a chronicle of the real fallout of trauma: messy, difficult, intricate, infinite . . . [A] life-changing read»
EMMA JANE UNSWORTH
