Reviewed by Barb Sampson

Barb takes care of the web orders here at Boffins, and is your contact for book club enquiries. She spends all her spare time curled up on the couch reading and for the last several years has reviewed books on the Afternoon Program on ABC radio Perth.

A young woman begins an affair with a much older famous American author. An Iraqi-American man is detained at Heathrow airport en route to the middle-east. What connects these stories is a matter of identity and creativity a la Alice Through the Looking Glass. This is a clever, sharp debut, given an extra element of intrigue by the author’s own history of a relationship, in her early twenties, with the American author Phillip Roth.
