Jessie is on her OE and living in a squat in London. She wants to shrug off the person she was and be anonymous in the big city of culture and protest, drugs and music. But she finds it’s not that easy to reinvent herself. . . In a series of vivid images, this novel evokes New Zealand in the sixties, London in the seventies and provocative flashes from the eighties and nineties. It’s a powerful novel, moving and beautifully written, from an exciting new writer.
