Jeanette Winterson's explosive first novel - ingenious, original, a
modern classic.
Like most people I lived for a long time with my mother and father. My
father liked to watch the wrestling, my mother liked to wrestle.
This is the story of Jeanette, born to be one of God's elect: adopted
by a fanatical Pentecostal family and ablaze with her own zeal for the
scriptures, she seems perfectly suited for the life of a missionary.
But then she converts Melanie, and realises she loves this woman almost
as much as she loves the Lord. How on Earth could her Church called
that passion Unnatural?
Both a groundbreaking coming-of-age novel and a pioneering work of
autofiction, Oranges Are Not the Only Fruit goes beyond facts into the
deepest truths. Searing and tender, playful and provocative, it is a
portrait of the artist as a young evangelist, re-writing her own Bible.
