Unsettling, challenging and gloriously written, Hot Milk by Deborah Levy is the multi-generational story of a hallucinatory sort of summer
Juliet Nicolson, Evening Standard
Leaves the reader enraptured and unnerved
Jackie Annesley, Evening Standard
Hypnotic... this novel has a transfixing gaze and a terrible sting that burns long after the final page is turned
Observer
A smart, seductive and utterly beguiling read
Mail on Sunday
Perfectly crafted, a dream-narrative so mesmerising that reading it is to be under a spell. Reaching the end is like finding a piece of glass on the beach, that can be held up and looked into and kept, in secret, to be looked at again and again.
Independent on Sunday
A fizzing combination of the fantastical and the mundane
Guardian
Astute, poetic and wise, Hot Milk confirms Deborah Levy's reputation as a master of the contemporary psychological novel
Darian Leader, author of 'What Is Madness?'
A unique atmosphere, the dense dreamscape of echoes and repetitions ensure its peculiar lasting power
Sunday Times
Publisher's description. Shortlisted for the Man Booker and Goldsmiths prizes, a hypnotic tale of female sexuality and power under the scorching midday sun. Sofia and her mother arrive on the Spanish coast looking for answers - what they find there will be strange, seductive and fearsome beyond their wildest dreams.
