Alison is SUCH a fantastic writer, she like a sculptress, knowing where to smooth off edges and where to leave sharp contours to shock and excite. Her writing never leaves you wanting, it saturates you in so many emotions; never using an unnecessary word,you go from laughter to verging on tears and always taps in our deepest feelings on love, sadness and death, she is just a stunning writer who should be given the attention that she deserves. Wonderful!
