REAL ESTATE - DEBORAH LEVY GEBUNDEN

From one of the great thinkers and writers of our time  comes the unmissable final instalment
in Deborah Levy's critically acclaimed 'Living Autobiography'. 'A beautifully crafted and
thought-provoking snapshot of a life' The Evening Standard _________________________________ 'I
began to wonder what myself and all unwritten and unseen women would possess in their property
portfolios at the end of their lives. Literally  her physical property and possessions  and
then everything else she valued  though it might not be valued by society. What might she claim
own  discard and bequeath? Or is she the real estate  owned by patriarchy? In this sense  Real
Estate is a tricky business. We rent it and buy it  sell and inherit it - but we must also
knock it down.' Following the critical acclaim of Things I Don't Want to Know and The Cost of
Living  this final volume of Deborah Levy's 'Living Autobiography' is an exhilarating 
thought-provoking and boldly intimate meditation on home and the spectres that haunt it.
_________________________________ 'Real Estate is a book to dive into. Come on in  the water's
lovely' The Daily Telegraph 'Her reflections on domesticity  freedom and romance are so
beautiful  I found myself underlining multiple sentences a page. Wry  warm and uplifting  it's
a book I'll return to again and again' Stylist '[Levy's living autobiography series is] a
glittering triple echo of books that are as much philosophical discourse as a manifesto for
living and writing' Financial Times
