Kennedy is an exceptional writer... <i>So I Am Glad</i> is her best book

Observer

Se alle

The clarity, wit and description of her style are uplifting... A writer in her thirties, who is becoming one of Britain's best

The Times

Outstanding... A virtuoso performance brilliantly balancing insight and agony

Irish Times

Jennifer M. Wilson has decided to become a voice. A professional enunciator, an announcer, a voice-over artist, she has retreated into a world of words. Behind the sound-proof double doors of the recording studio she must surely be safe from the painful inconveniences of hate and love. Until reality breaks in and Jennifer uncovers the harsh vocabulary of addiction and the addictive extremes of sex. -An alchemical romance, a Swiftian satire for our times, an impossible spiritual journey and a devastating plummet into insanity and perversion, So I Am Glad is oblique, incisive, hilarious and horrific.
