Die Inhaltsangabe kann sich auf eine andere Ausgabe dieses Titels beziehen.
Imogen Crimp has an MA in contemporary literature from UCL, where she specialised in female modernist writers. After university, she initially trained to be an opera singer, studying at a conservatoire. She lives and works in London.
A bitingly honest, darkly funny debut about love, sex, power and desire, by a major new British talent.
Anna is struggling to afford life in London as she trains to be a singer. During the day, she vies to succeed against her course mates with their discreet but inexhaustible streams of cultural capital and money, and in the evening she sings jazz at a bar in the City to make ends meet.
It's there that she meets Max, a financier fourteen years older than her. Over the course of one winter, Anna's intoxication oscillates between her hard-won moments on stage, where she can zip herself into the skin of her characters, and nights spent with Max in his glass-walled flat overlooking the city.
But Anna's fledgling career demands her undivided attention, and increasingly - whether he necessarily wills it or not - so does Max.
