Paradise City by Elizabeth Day
An audacious, compassionate state-of-the-nation novel about four strangers whose lives collide with far-reaching consequences.‘An acutely observed and insightful portrait of contemporary urban lifeAudacious, funny and shrewdly telling - written with tremendous confidence and brio’ William Boyd
‘A wise, big-hearted novel. I was utterly caught up in Day's four interweaving lives’ Esther Freud
‘Combines great story-telling with finely detailed characterisation: a literary page-turner’ David Baddiel
‘A beautiful portrait not only of four lives but of a city - London springs vividly to life in this tender, absorbing novel. Elizabeth Day is a wonderful story-teller’ Francesca Segal
‘The four desperate Londoners forge life-changing connections in this ambitious novel. Day's protagonists are rounded and believable, and the big city - in all its maddening, bustling glory - is the unofficial fifth character’ Glamour
‘As a state-of-the-city novel, it's richer than John Lanchester's Capital and less pleased with itself than Ian McEwan's Saturday’ Evening Standard
