Sadie Jones recommended reading
I finished reading The Outcast by Sadie Jones last night. I’m not a huge reader of fiction but this one is pretty good, especially considering that this is a debut novel. The book - about a lonely child affected by the drowning of his mother in 1950s’ Surrey - reminds me somewhat of Ian McEwan but the second half of the book is more pacy than a McEwan novel.
Stand by for an interview with Sadie Jones coming up next week.
