Acerca de este libro electrónico
Riotously fun and uplifting, a coming-of-age story about difficult friendships, delicious feasts, and taking control of your body and your happiness - a richly indulgent and life-affirming novel from one of the most exciting new voices in literature
WINNER of the GUARDIAN 'NOT THE BOOKER' PRIZE 2019
Selected in BEST BOOKS OF THE YEAR - Vogue, TIME, Vulture, Woman and Home
'Subversive, radical, written with total glee and rollicking sense of unlimited possibility. Williams is one to watch' Stylist
If you feed a starving woman, what will she grow into?
Twenty-nine year old Roberta has spent her whole life hungry. So she invents Supper Club: a secret society for women sick of bad men and bad sex. Fed up of being told to talk less, take less, be less, they gather after dark to feast and dance through the night. But as their bodies expand, so do their horizons, their desires - and their urge to break the rules.
You look hungry. Join the club.
'Superb... Hilariously funny and deeply moving' Guardian Not the Booker Prize
'Engrossing, ambitious, joyful as well as dark - which is so close to the bone and so necessary. I can't wait to read her next book' Emilie Pine, author of Notes to Self
'Cool and knowing, jam-packed with cultural references, not to mention mouthwatering recipes' Metro
'Daring, funny, humane, delightful. She's the real thing' Sam Jordison, Guardian
'For reading while eating in the bath and licking your lips. There's no other book to read this month' Lit Hub
'Darkly delicious. A celebration of female power and friendship' Sunday Mirror
'Riotous, bold, wild and witty' Sunday Express
