Review:
"Sleepwalking is exceptionally good... Myerson has made the most pointed comments on parenthood since Philip Larkin" (Sunday Telegraph)
"Julie Myerson...tackles murky themes with grace and clarity. Her prose is nimble and springy. Her short scenes, flicking between past and present, flash before us like a deck of cards shuffled by a top-class conjurer... Myerson is the genuine article" (Independent)
"A measured evocation of bereavement and childhood trauma" (The Sunday Times)
"An impressive literary debut... funny and moving" (Guardian)
"An emotional, delicate, lucid and extremely likeable debut" (Elle)
