'A raging, funny and fierce thriller with a protagonist whose life force, against extraordinary odds -- always in the gaze and sometimes the grasp of predatory, abusive men -- is a thing of wonder' Financial Times 'Joan is an unforgettable anti-heroine. I don't think I'll ever stop thinking about her' Elizabeth DayI drove myself out of New York City where a man shot himself in front of me. He was a gluttonous man and when his blood came out it looked like the blood of a pig. That's a cruel thing to think, I know. He did it in a restaurant where I was having dinner with another man, another married man.Do you see how this is going? But I wasn't always that way.I am depraved. I hope you like me.MEET JOAN: SUMMER 2021A 2021 Highlight for: Guardian - Sunday Express - Independent - New Statesman - Evening Standard - Cosmopolitan - Red - Grazia - Daily Mail - Daily Express - The Week - Irish Times - i - The Sun'Like a series of grenades exploding' Marian Keyes
