'I Never Said I Love You is one of the most electric, enchanting,
engrossing and energising memoirs of self-harm, self-loathing,
grief, eating disorders, suicide - and sex - that you will read.'
The Sunday Times 'Indecently entertaining... one of the most
uplifting and eccentric memoirs I have ever read.' Observer
'Brutally honest and relentlessly funny.' Adam Kay, author of 'This
is Going to Hurt' 'A brilliant memoir full of gasp-inducing honesty
about depression and family and taking control of your own pain.
Funny, sad, hopeful, I Never Said I Loved You is an irresistible,
strangely empowering read.' Matt Haig 'This mind-blowingly
wonderful memoir had me convulsing with laughter even while my
heart was breaking. It's utterly effing BEAUTIFUL.' Marian Keyes 'I
found myself blindsided by this extraordinary book ... I was deeply
moved by its capacity both to depict pain, and offer consolation. I
loved it, and won't ever forget it.' Sarah Perry 'Both touching and
funny' the Telegraph On an unlikely backpacking trip, Rhik and his
mother find themselves speaking openly for the first time in years.
Afterwards, the depression that has weighed down on Rhik begins to
loosen its grip for a moment - so he seizes the opportunity: to own
it, to understand it, and to find out where it came from. Through
this begins a journey of investigation, healing and recovery. Along
the way Rhik learns some shocking truths about his family, and
realizes that, in turn, he will need to confront the secrets he has
long buried. But through this, he triumphs over his fears and
brings his depression into the light. I Never Said I Loved You is
the story of how Rhik learned to let go, and then keep going. With
unique humour and honesty, he has created a powerfully rich, funny
and poignant exploration of the light and dark in all of us. A
vital, moving and darkly funny memoir by a powerful new voice in
non-fiction. 'Both unputdownable and beautifully-written, bracing
and consoling. A book that tackles mental health and the darkest
things with razor-sharp wit and mordant laughs aplenty ... read
this.' Sharlene Teo 'Touching, funny, wildly readable ... Look out
for it.' Sathnam Sanghera 'No one writes better, or more sweetly,
about how it feels to feel. Even the darkest times are shot through
with glorious, bright beams of wit.' Janet Ellis 'It's honest and
funny (and beautifully painful and brutal at times), but also - oh
goodness - it's so elegant. The writing is graceful and kind, even
when it hurts a little to remember it's a memoir.' Joanna Cannon
'Equal parts hilarious and heartbreaking. What an absolutely
riveting read.' Nikita Gill 'Heartbreaking, funny, raw, brave and -
yes! - even better than the egg thing.' Erin Kelly 'I have always
loved Rhik Samadder's writing. And now there's a whole book!'
Jessie Burton 'A sparkling, thoughtful memoir. It manages to be
witty, charming, brooding and devastating all the same time.'
