SHORTLISTED FOR THE CENTER FOR FICTION FIRST NOVEL PRIZE

'As big, beautiful and complicated as living itself'
Jacqueline Woodson, author of Red at the Bone

'I ate this up in one greedy, joyous gulp . . . Hilariously funny and quietly devastating - a compelling narrative about what it means to define ourselves and make space for our bodies as women'
Nicole Dennis-Benn, author of Patsy

'There are three books on earth that I would give anything to be able to write and reread until the sun burns us up. Big Girl is one of those books'
Kiese Laymon, author of Heavy

'A thrilling, big-hearted novel'
Chigozie Obioma, author of An Orchestra of Minorities

'As quietly revolutionary as Gwendolyn Brooks' Maud Martha or Jamaica Kincaid's Annie John. Resetting the conversation about girlhood, desire, bodies and appetites, this book is a revelation' Kaitlyn Greenidge, author of Libertie
