Synopsis:
In and Out of the Goldfish Bowl is an engaging and honest fictionalised version of a Welsh childhood where you really do hope your Mam will murder your step-father with a bread knife this Christmas. With a searing literary energy as well as being laugh-out-loud funny , Trezise's debut work is a seminal work in Welsh fiction. The power is in what is not said... the use of language economic, inventive and highly evocative. New Welsh Review An outstanding young writer. The Times Laugh-Out-Loud funny. Peter Florence It positively sings. Leonora Brito
