Women's Prize for Fiction 2021

Dialogue's super lead for 2020. From the author of the New York Times bestseller The Mothers, a powerful new novel about the parallel lives of estranged twin sisters who choose to live in two very different worlds - one black and one white.

Razor-sharp, provocatively page-turning and surprisingly tender, Luster is a painfully funny coming-of-age story told by a fresh new voice.

HOW THE ONE-ARMED SISTER SWEEPS HER HOUSE is a powerful, heart-wrenching novel of a troubled island, of three marriages, and of the women who live, love and fight to survive.

* 'Droll, shrewd and unafraid - a winning debut' Hilary Mantel * * 'Fiercely intelligent, brutally funny' Nathan Filer * * A Stylist 'Best new book for 2020' * Naoise Dolan explodes onto the scene with Exciting Times, a slyly humorous and scorchingly smart modern love story about three cynics in Hong Kong

With the emotional intelligence of Maggie O'Farrell and the witty observational skills of Kate Atkinson, this is a novel of unexpected second chances set in 1950s England.
