The Book of Human Skin by Michelle Lovric
This is going to be a little uncomfortable...
‘This book is fabulous - funny, horrific, subversive - in short a wholly addictive readI don't think I have enjoyed anything as much since Perfume' * Joanne Harris *
‘If it doesn't scoop all the prizes, we live in an unjust world. It's an absolute corker ... It's years since I enjoyed a novel this much - or felt such strong envy of an author for having the breadth and richness of imagination to create such a world' * A.N. Wilson *
‘This is, essentially, a love story told by a delightfully riotous collection of characters and voices ... Fantastically gripping' * Marie Claire *
‘A witty, exciting, over-the-top page-turner which becomes increasingly addictive... Quite unlike anything else around - and all the better for that' * Daily Mail *
