'irresistibly brilliant' – Tôpher Mills on Tracey Rhys


'When I first bumped to Tracey Rhys (twenty odd years ago, apparently she was just a teenager) she was reading and writing stories. They were so good I suggested she should think about a book. After about 15 years she produced a pamphlet of poems and now, 9 years on, this fabulous collection that mixes the dramatic and the hilarious to show how irresistibly brilliant she can be. Here’s hoping we don’t have to wait as long for her next book.' – Tôpher Mills
