...nonfiction and three previous novels, including Everything You Need (1999). Yet she still features on those media-friendly lists of British young bloods to watch out for, and reviewers still struggle to pin her down; Kennedy harvests and grades their comments on her website and is particularly fond of an early one accusing her of "making misery tedious." Hannah Luckraft's misery is making her drink herself to death: Paradise opens in hell, in the kind of hangover that is most quickly cured by getting drunk again. Her career - "something in cardboard" - is hanging by a thread, her grasp...
...hard for me to say because it is also a [person's] way of thinking that has elegance to it. I liked Samuel Beckett. [He had] a true elegance.

Adolescence looms ahead, which nowadays can begin at around the age of 8. Drug dealers lurk in the alley; nihilist rock...
...doubt the very fact that I am a protester makes it easy for you to write me off as an “extremist”—a term your campaign seems fond of affixing to opponents these days. As a college student in Cambridge I, admittedly, fit the stereotype. But I am also a voter from the key swing state of Arizona, and I live in a congressional district which has voted for the same Republican since 1984. If I am an extremist, it is only in the sense that I care more deeply about the future...
