Review:
Her writings are painfully honest . . . Strangeland is more than Tracey's diary, just as her bed and her tent and her blankets are more than private displays that happen to have attracted a lot of attention (Jeanette Winterson The Times)
While her best-known art has shown Emin at her most confrontational, in her writing we meet a calmer, more sensitive soul. ( Observer )
A fantastically engaging storyteller . . . heartbreaking . . . effortlessly funny ( Metro )
As spare and poignant as one of Emin's line drawings ( Marie Claire )
A very readable book, and a surprising one too ( Independent on Sunday)
Eccentrically readable ( Glamour)
Frequently affecting . . . intriguing, almost incantatory ( Saturday Telegraph )
Reveals a funny, sensitive and brave woman ( Grazia )
Emin talks with brutal frankness . . . genuinely uplifting ( Scotsman )
'A fantastically engaging storyteller... heartbreaking... effortlessly funny' ( Metro )
