Her husband Charlie offers all the relief he can. Rosy's sister-in-law, Sally, offers none. But Rosy feels something growing in her. A hard knot in her chest.

Recensioner i media

'An immensely talented young writer ... her fearlessness renews one's faith in the power of literature.' George Saunders, winner of 2017 Man Booker Prize 'Mrs Jekyll is a heartbreaking and seductive novel - a swirling journey into grief's abandon that is both dark and beautifully wrought.' Sophie Mackintosh, author of The Water Cure 'Sensual, chilling, powerfully immersive, Emma Glass writes with a truly original voice.' Esther Freud, author of Hideous Kinky 'Emma Glass is a devastatingly talented writer ... Every page transmits a dark, delicious power. I insist you drink it all in, like the perfect potion it is.' Emma Jane Unsworth, author of Animals 'Incisive and mercurial ... a searing, feminist account of how it feels to be at war with yourself, and the desire to live and die in a world that can no longer contain you.' Jessica Andrews, author of Milk Teeth
