How the One-armed Sister Sweeps her House
by Cherie Jones
Arguably the dark horse of the 2021 Women’s Prize,
it thoroughly deserved its place on the shortlist and would have
been a worthy winner.
A dark portrait of trauma and poverty, written
beautifully, never truly hopeless. Following the tangled
lives of a complex cast of characters.

by Joanna Kavenna

How the
One-Armed Sister Sweeps Her House
by Cherie
Jones
Though it missed out on top billing at the 2021
Women’s Prize, it thoroughly deserved its place on the shortlist
and would have been a worthy winner.
A dark portrait of trauma and poverty,
beautifully written, never truly hopeless. Following the
tangled lives of a complex cast of characters, it resists the
temptation to make easy victims and villains and instead truly
explores the circumstances which lead people into desperate,
violent, evil actions.

The End of
Everything
by Katie
Mack
This is
actually really rather very good. A marvellous supplier of
perspective, with the welcome bonus of complex topics and
cosmological minutiae rendered engaging, readable and – best of all
– understandable.

Piranesi
by Susanna Clarke
Weird,
wonderful and pretty damn unforgettable – for all the right reasons!
The author of Jonathan Strange and Mr Norrell turns her bold
imagination and fierce talent to a novel unlike anything I’ve ever read
before.
