The first in Deborah Levy's essential three-part Living Autobiography on writing and womanhood is a must-read. It is like stumbling upon an oasis; you want to drink it slowly. Subtle, unpredictable, and surprising, it is a work of dazzling insight and deep psychological succour, from one of our most vital contemporary writers.
Levy takes George Orwell's famous essay, Why I Write, as a jumping-off point and offers her own indispensable reflections on the writing life. With wit, clarity, and calm brilliance, she considers how the writer must stake claim to that contested territory as a young woman and shape it to her need.
Things I Don't Want to Know is a work of dazzling insight and deep psychological succour, from one of our most vital contemporary writers. The final two instalments in Levy's Living Autobiography, The Cost of Living and Real Estate, are available now.
Levy's writing is superb, with sharpness and originality of imagination. An inspiring work of writing, it has been praised by Marina Warner, Sunday Times, and Independent. Her anger and confusion in the face of the world transform into poetic flights of fancy, which always feel marvellously right.
