Rezensionen

[A] raw, funny and untidily generous novel... Ottila belongs to the great sisterhood of the Female Fuck-Up. Not the eroticised trainwrecks male writers love to invent, but the real-deal ones like Phoebe Waller-Bridge's Fleabag... As much as you're rooting for Ottila to get her man, that's not the point; the point is whether she can gain the moral wisdom to live a better kind of life. She's an Emma steeped in ethanol.
