LONGLISTED FOR THE WOMEN'S PRIZE FOR FICTION 2021

'Remarkable... Small Pleasures is no small pleasure'
The Times


'An irresistible novel - wry, perceptive and quietly devastating'
Mail on Sunday


'Chambers' eye for undemonstrative details achieves a Larkin-esque lucidity'
Guardian


'An almost flawlessly written tale of genuine, grown-up romantic anguish'
The Sunday Times


1957, the suburbs of South East London. Jean Swinney is a journalist on a local paper, trapped in a life of duty and disappointment from which there is no likelihood of escape.

When a young woman, Gretchen Tilbury, contacts the paper to claim that her daughter is the result of a virgin birth, it is down to Jean to discover whether she is a miracle or a fraud.

As the investigation turns her quiet life inside out, Jean is suddenly given an unexpected chance at friendship, love and - possibly - happiness.

But there will, inevitably, be a price to pay.

Book of the Year for: The Times, Daily Telegraph, Evening Standard, Daily Express, Metro, Spectator, Red Magazine and Good Housekeeping
