"'Impressively sustained a piece of writing as I can remember, a virtuoso mixture of humour, tragedy, frustration and pathos' Chris Power, The Times"
Heather McGowan is the author of the novel Schooling, described by Jonathan Lethem as 'a thrilling, crystalline novel of lyricism and erudition, a book which like the best books contains a whole, urgent and unforgettable world.'
