A HEARTBREAKING WORK OF STAGGERING PENIS
GRACE LAVERY
Daunt Books, 304pp, £14.99
Grace Lavery may well relish the pile-on her memoir sparked in the British press. In America, the reviewer in the Publishers Weekly concluded it was both ‘engrossing and impenetrable’ but here reviewers were less polite.
Born in Sheffield as Joseph, Grace is now a professor of English Literature at Berkeley University, California, and is a veteran of online exhibitionism. As Sarah Ditum put it in the , she displays a marked willingness ‘to get into any and all social media dramas’.
