AMY LIPTROT
«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
«I didn't put it down until finished. White's extraordinary memoir is gripping, unflinchingly honest and written with great wit»
