Everyone has a story - and everyone has something to hide . . .
Perfect for fans of EVERYTHING I KNOW ABOUT LOVE by Dolly Alderton
and IDOL by Louise O'Neill, YOUNG WOMEN is a searing new novel from
a dazzling new voice where a fierce new female friendship will
unearth a secret that could change everything . . . 'One of the
most exciting new voices of the decade' Erin Kelly 'Ambitious and
arresting' Beth Underdown 'Utterly engrossing' Louise Nealon
'Brilliantly written... compelling' Kate Sawyer 'Skilfully written
and vividly engaging' Winnie M, Li When Emily meets enigmatic and
dazzling actress Tamsin, her life changes. Drawn into Tamsin's
world of Soho living, boozy dinners, and cocktails at impossibly
expensive bars, Emily's life shifts from black and white to
technicolour and the two women become inseparable. Tamsin is the
friend Emily has always longed for; beautiful, fun, intelligent and
mysterious and soon Emily is neglecting her previous life - her
work assisting vulnerable women, her old friend Lucy - to bask in
her glow. But when a bombshell news article about a decades-old
sexual assault case breaks, Emily realises that Tamsin has been
hiding a secret about her own past. A secret that threatens to
unravel everything . . . Young Women is a razor sharp novel that
slices to the heart of our most important relationships, and asks
how complicit we all are in this world built for men. Praise for
Young Women and Jessica Moor: 'A visceral slice of female
friendship' Stylist 'Skilfully draws the reader into a
#MeToo-inspired exploration of sexual mores, examining privilege,
power, coercion and complicity . . . Moor's slick cautionary tale
captures the intoxication and juddering confusion of
twenty-something city life, as well as the trauma of predatory,
abusive behaviour' Sunday Times 'A sharp examination of society and
all-encompassing female friendship' Red 'A timely read and a good
book club choice' Prima 'Painfully real' Hanna Jameson 'This book!
Provocative, thought-provoking, vivid, superbly written' Bexy

new young writer I believe in' Jeanette Winterson 'Tense, beautiful

rage and weep and understand a little better. A powerful book
telling stories that need to be heard' Rosamund Lupton
