Beschreibung

<p><b>'Tender, humorous and moving'</b> <i>COSMOPOLITAN</i></p><p><b>'Visceral, wild, and so beautifully necessary.' </b>SALMA EL-WARDANY, author of THESE IMPOSSIBLE THINGS</p><p><b>'Radojevic's stories and fragments are so sharp-edged they could draw blood. Fierce, funny and angry.' </b>CATHERINE MAYER, author TIME/LIFE</p><p>***</p><p><b>Across thirty striking tales, Monika Radojevic weaves together the surreal with the everyday, confronting the experiences of contemporary womanhood with a tender ferocity shot through with humour.</b></p><p>A woman walks into a bar, and nobody notices. A newly married couple are punished for their childlessness with an unsettling nocturnal invasion. A girl trades her vocal cords for a chance at freedom. A door-to-door salesperson offers the antidote to women's fear - but it comes at a high price.</p><p>Bubbling with an urgent rage that occasionally tips over into vengeance, Radojevic deftly charts the moments that make a life: from the warmth of first love to the recognition of anger, and the possibilities that take shape as we find or lose our ability to speak. <i>A Beautiful Lack of Consequence</i> explores the ways in which the world bends and breaks women with the pressure it puts on them - and what happens when those women snap back.</p><p><b>Moving and irreverent, dark and otherworldly, </b><i><b>A Beautiful Lack of Consequence</b></i><b> is a blazing debut collection from the winner of the #Merky Books New Writers' Prize.</b></p><p>***</p><p>'Thoughtful, introspective and darkly funny' READER REVIEW</p><p><b>'So beautiful and raw' </b>READER REVIEW</p><p><b>'Biting . . . a must read!' </b>READER REVIEW</p>
