Critics Review

Written in a playful style, this is a dark and funny exploration of the fears and anxieties embedded in domestic suburban life that seems particularly pertinent as we emerge from these troubling times * Big Issue *Readers with a taste for unreliable narrators will find themselves entranced by this exhilaratingly peculiar debut. O’Connor’s addled language, which often deploys words in ways that don’t feel quite right, adds to the delirious impression of a man untethered from reality. Quite where that leaves the reader is all part of the fun. * Daily Mail *
