'Completely blew me away.' Daisy Johnson, author of Everything
Under 'One of the most dazzling debuts I've ever read.' Taiye
Selasi, author of Ghana Must Go 'I'm urging everyone to read it.'
Sophie Mackintosh, author of The Water Cure Ada has always been
unusual. Her parents prayed her into existence, but something must
have gone awry. Their troubled child begins to develop separate
selves and is prone to fits of anger and grief.When Ada grows up
and heads to college in America, a traumatic event crystallises the
selves into something more powerful. As Ada fades into the
background of her own mind, these 'alters' - now protective, now
hedonistic - take control, shifting her life in a dangerous
direction.
