Elizabeth Day is an award-winning journalist who has worked for the Evening Standard, the Sunday Telegraph, the Mail on Sunday and Elle, and who is now a feature writer for the Observer. She grew up in Northern Ireland and graduated with a double first in History from Cambridge. She lives in London. Scissors, Paper, Stone is her first novel.
`The relationship between the two women is very well done - tense, hinting all the time at some fatal incident ...truly disturbing, utterly believable ... sensitive, never prurient' * Margaret Forster * `Elizabeth Day has written an absorbing and moving novel in which she has managed to convey the chronic damage that a father, wife and daughter may do to one another. Her writing is both delicate and direct, not an easy combination to effect, but she has pulled it off' * Elizabeth Jane Howard * `A daring, absorbing and beautifully-written story of damage and betrayal, this is an exhilarating and deeply affecting first novel' * Jennie Rooney, author of Inside the Whale * `Written with an imagination and emotional sensitivity that elevate it far beyond the cliches of middle-class melodrama, Scissors, Paper, Stone is a moving, terrifyingly real account of how love can be bent out of all recognisable shape.' * Observer *
