The perfect anti-Valentine- a deliciously dark collection of love stories, from a prizewinning writer who has been compared to Margaret Atwood and Angela Carter.
'Absolutely obsessed. Savage, strange and spicy' Lucy Rose, author of Lamb
Can 'no' be a declaration of love? What happens when love is savage, dangerous and all-consuming? In this gorgeous and unsettling collection, women navigate the complexities and cruelties of desire across time and place, from a medieval convent to a Victorian parlour to a 1990s high school.
Intensely atmospheric, surprising and darkly funny, No & Other Stories is a richly flavoured feast from a brilliant writer in full command of the form.
'Unsettling and addictive, glistening with transgressive thrills and erotic appetites' Daily Mail
'Gleefully depraved, gloriously queer and thrillingly bold' Leon Craig, author of Parallel Hells
'A dark delight, steeped in blood red honey' Heather Parry, author of Orpheus Builds A Girl
'A gothic homage to the visceral, haunting, unnerving nature of human connection' Alice Slater, author of Death of a Bookseller
'Full of strange beauty and shining humour' Stylist
'No one writes about the horrific and the erotic, and the tangled up intersections of both, like Kirsty Logan' Anna Bogutskaya, author of Feeding The Monster
'Darkly graceful, innovative, sexy and funny. Kirsty Logan is a jewel' Camilla Grudova, author of The Doll's Alphabet
'Crackling with smarts, marvellously formally varied, deliciously strange' Laird Hunt, author of Zorrie
