Lamb

LONGLISTED FOR THE WOMEN'S PRIZE FOR FICTION 2013

An unsettling exploration of manipulation and power between a middle-aged man and eleven year-old girl.



Tommie is eleven.
David Lamb is fifty-four.

There’s nothing wrong with that, is there?

A devastatingly convincing portrait of abuse . . . Add in pitch-perfect dialogue and this utterly assured, high stakes, high-wire act of a novel is proof that Nadzam is a very special talent indeed.
