Some Things Only

"This sparky debut novel... Enthralling from the first page, this bittersweet fusion of fairytales and nightmares is sugared by nostalgia and salted with sadness"
Hephzibah Anderson Daily Mail

 

 

 

 

 

 

Wickedly funny and devastatingly moving, 26a is an extraordinary first novel. Part fairytale, part nightmare, it moves from the mundane to the magical, the particular to the universal with exceptional flair and imagination.

For anyone who has had a childhood, and anyone who knows what it is to lose one.
