New novel WIFE out now, Meanwhile: The Exhibitionist, Almost English, When We Were Bad, gardener
Pinned
Poleaxed after finishing this. @charlottemendelson.bsky.social _ is at her soul-searing best. Narcissistic monsters and suffocating families are quite the speciality of hers, but #Wife is just unbearably brilliant
Reposting this my Bluesky zenith

I’ve been hacked over in the other place, which in one way is rather a blessing. The process of trying to sort it out is, however, exasperating. This tweet (which a friend screenshot and sent) did make me laugh though, so that’s something!
