What the critics say...

Uncut (p.78) - 3 stars out of 5 -- "Throsby's debut is riddled with poignant lyrical twists....Good for those who find Cat Power too bleak."
Mojo (Publisher) (p.93) - 3 stars out of 5 -- "[Her] dissertations on floundering romance are delivered with a spare, Raymond Carver-like intimacy that's as beguiling as it is mildly disturbing....A sensitive and unashamedly frank debut..."
