BLOB

'Witty and wild'
HARPER'S BAZAAR 'Uniquely beautiful'
STYLIST LONGLISTED FOR THE PEN/HEMINGWAY AWARD FOR BEST DEBUT NOVEL Recently dumped and stuck in a dead-end job, Vi's life is a lonely mess. That is, until she stumbles across a mysterious sentient blob outside a drag club. She takes it home, feeding it a diet of cereal and reality TV. Soon Vi realises she can shape her gelatinous companion into the perfect man: attentive, outgoing, and with more than a passing resemblance to Ryan Gosling. But is Bob the blob really the answer to all her problems, or just a catalyst for further disaster? 'A sharp, funny and poignant look at what it means to connect with another being, and yourself'
