Explodes with power, discipline, integrity and sheer cruel psychological accuracy Neilson's writing has a terrible beauty

Shattering, shocking a serious, persuasive account of the blind alleys love can lead us down

A deeply mesmerising, if shocking, experience as a couple smashes through taboo after taboo in a harrowing sexual tug of war
