Go on by Tania Hershman

How to tell your story? I want to talk, the Author says on page 1. The Narrator who has been assigned to assist her knows that what is needed now is permission. Go on, says the Narrator - and a book is born. Weaving threads and following tangents, Tania Hershman's debut novel, a hybrid fictional memoir-in-collage, tells one story and many stories: how is it to be a woman moving happily alone through the world? Who are you if not in relation to others?


A woman walks through the cemetery, talking to the dead. A class of schoolgirls grapples with what anger is and might be. A baby is left by scientists in a forest. Someone claims to be your grandmother. As the Author writes her way into and through what she needs to say, the Narrator watches her develop and blossom and wonders what will happen when they reach the end. Go on.

Hershman, Tania: - Born in London in 1970, Tania Hershman moved to Jerusalem in 1994, and after 15 years in Israel, she moved to Bristol . After making a living for 13 years as a science journalist, writing for publications such as WIRED, New Scientist, the MIT Technology Review and Business 2.0, Tania Hershman gave it all up to write fiction.
