When To Walk Zusammenfassung

When To Walk Rebecca Gowers

It looks like just another week ahead. Then out of the blue Ramble's husband ends their marriage over lunch and disappears. With no rent money and her world in shreds, she is forced to reconsider everything she's ever been taught by her screwy relatives, unreliable friends and wayward criminal connections. Should she hide in life's slipstream, or has the moment come to break free? When to Walk is an astonishing debut, lit up with hope and unexpected laughter.

When To Walk Bewertungen

Brilliantly original and convincing . . . Tristram Shandy meets Bridget Jones. * * Daily Telegraph * *
Gowers's writing is absolutely beautiful. * * The Times * *
A humorous romp spiked with the unpredictable and the darkly comic . . . Ramble's mind fascinates and charms . . . the perfect read for those bored with the current surfeit of cliche-ridden chick lit. * * New Statesman * *
Clever, comical and unpredictable. * * Tim Pears * *
A beautifully written and brilliantly original comedy, blacker than coal and crafted with the delicate precision of a lace-maker. * * Metro * *
The first-person narration is engaging, sometimes bleak but never self-pitying, written in a sharp, lapidary style. The story is adorned with neat little insights and discussions of arcane vocabulary and etymologies ... anyone who likes witty, spiky, clever and psychologically acute fiction will like it. -- Brandon Robshaw * * Independent on Sunday * *
