A semi-famous artist turns forty-five and gives herself a gift – a cross-country road trip from LA to New York, without her husband and child. But thirty minutes after setting off, she spontaneously exits the freeway, beds down in a nondescript motel – and embarks on the journey of a lifetime.

Eleştirmen yorumları

"It’s very funny, quite dirty, and deeply profound, with a fragile magic that comes from entering an uncensored inner world. There is the added thrill as well, of July suggesting that midlife, and menopause in particular, might be kind of . . . hot"
"Rage, grief, lust, sadness, selfishness; this stunning book and July’s nameless heroine have it all. I cannot wait to read it all over again" (GILLIAN ANDERSON)
"A life-changer for me. I thought I was reading about middle age, then I thought I was reading about menopause, then motherhood, then sexuality, then monogamy, then marriage. And by the final page I realised I was reading about existence and death and I couldn’t stop crying. Plus it’s so funny and it’s so horny. My favourite novel of this year" (DOLLY ALDERTON)
"A giddy, bold, mind-blowing tour de force by one of our most important literary writers. Funny, honest, rich with the energy of the mind, All Fours will jump-start your relation to language and cause you to think anew about the nature of desire" (GEORGE SAUNDERS)
"Transcendent . . . A book that emboldens you. To read it, is to feel gloriously, unashamedly alive" (PANDORA SYKES)
"One of the freshest, funniest, most urgent voices I've read in a long time . . . Authentic and willingly honest. I couldn't put the book down. What a delight" (HUGH JACKMAN)
"Wild and outrageous, provocative and entirely unpredictable" (DAVID NICHOLLS)
"Essential . . . A book of vast scope, taking in men and women, the mind and the body, and society and solitude"
"July doesn’t just tap into the zeitgeist; she helps shape it. Her prose is startlingly original yet immediately familiar, like meeting a stranger who reminds you of yourself. How did she create something so original and yet so relatable? . . . Unflinching and insistent - a defiance against erasure" (MOLLY RINGWALD)
"July comes into her own [and] brings a new perspective . . . A menopause novel that’s never boring"

Brilliant narration of an incredibly well written sensuous book. Fresh, innovative and alive - a truly wonderful book and the best narration by the author.

Masterpiece!

I can't decide as a man if I enjoyed this or not. Listening to the inner thoughts of this woman has shocked and to some extent amused me. Do all women have these thoughts? Brilliantly written and some deeply clever observations. Clearly a talented writer but it has left me wanting to know more about the author.

Not sure

I loved the whole thing. Humorous and honest. It's not often I read books where I relate so deeply with the storyteller. I feel less lonely somehow.

Hard relate

It’s amazing, all of it. It’s ugly beautiful but mostly beautiful and honest -Read it.

The words, the insight, the vulnerability
