Stella Duffy is a writer of satirical wit and linguistic energy - as well as variety.
-- Dr Jules Smith * British Council *
Duffy's stories move us, they eat away at us with their humorous and honeyed sharpness, and they stay with us.
* Thresholds *
On The Room of Lost Things:
A spellbinding love song to a part of London usually demonised as home to muggings, shootings and feral gangs ... a book of great sensitivity and passion.
* Independent on Sunday *
On State of Happiness:
Duffy is known for her sharp insights and sharper wit, and both are on display here ... Brave, understated and unforgettable.
* Daily Mail *
On Singling Out the Couples:
An extraordinary, glittery parable about the power and cruelty of relationships.
-- Fay Weldon * Mail on Sunday *
Stella Duffy is a writer who never lets you down.
