Ein vielbeachtetes Debüt von einer Autorin, die von der britischen Presse bereits als 'the female Irvine Welsh' bezeichnet wurde. Helen Walsh beschreibt auf drastische und doch poetische Weise den Selbstzerstörungsdrang einer jungen Frau, Tochter aus gutem Hause, und deren vielfältige Erfahrungen mit Drogen, Sex und Gewalt.
Walsh's first novel is an amazing insight into female sexuality. Utterly shocking yet completely endearing, this novel is gripping from the first page. Just be warned, it's not for the fainthearted.
Raw, sometimes revolting but always compulsive.
If you want to find a new sense of what it is like to be a woman in England today, Brass is the most striking coming-of-age story that I have read for a long time . . . Helen Walsh is up there with Irvine Welsh in her ability to show what it is that draws people to the extremes of pleasure. Vogue
