'I couldn't put it down' - Sally Rooney  author of Normal People    Kathy is a writer. Kathy is
getting married. It's the summer of 2017 and the whole world is falling apart.   Kathy spends
the first summer of her forties trying to adjust to making a lifelong commitment - marriage.
But it's not only Kathy who is changing. Political  social and natural landscapes are all in
peril. Fascism is on the rise  truth is dead  the planet is hotting up. Is it really worth
learning to love when the end of the world is nigh? And how do you make art  let alone a life 
when it could all end at any moment?   From a Tuscan hotel for the super-rich to a
politically-paralysed UK  Olivia Laing's first novel is a love letter  inspired by the life and
work of Kathy Acker. It is a blistering rewire of the form and a brilliant  funny and
emphatically raw account of love in the apocalypse.  '[Crudo] will blow you away' - Deborah
Levy  author of Hot Milk   Winner of the James Tait Black Prize for Fiction Shortlisted for the
Goldsmiths Prize and the Gordon Burn Prize
