About the Author:
Emma Henderson ran a ski chalet in France for several years. She now lives in London and this is her first novel.
Review:
'In her protagonist, Grace Williams, debut novelist Emma Henderson has created a complex and compelling character...although Grace can only speak in two-syllable sentences, Henderson's use of first-person narrative reveals her vibrant inner life. The skilfully constructed word-play, repetition and rhythm of Grace's voice are perceptive, poetic and often funny...This dynamic first novel is reassuringly upbeat.' * Independent * Grace's story from child to adult, told to stunning effect. Beautifully written, funny, sad and unforgettable, a love story like no other, it could be your book of the year. * Choice * 'A quirky and clever debut... this is an honest and witty insight into mental illness.' * Stylist * 'There is tenderness, joy, romance (not to mention inventive sex) and heartbreak. The language is tricksy, the subject disturbing. But this book is energetic, passionate and not easily forgotten.' * Sunday Times * 'Mesmerising... an incredible journey through love, loss, bittersweet triumph and disaster'. * Sunday Herald * 'Startlingly assured, poetic and engaging - GRACE WILLIAMS SAYS IT LOUD introduces a new voice, one which I have no doubt we will be hearing much more of; I read it in two sittings, and am already looking forward to her next work.' * Patrick McCabe *
