About this audiobook
Since her mother and sister have left home, Nomi lives with her father, Ray, a sweet yet hapless schoolteacher. Fighting against the restraints of the town, Nomi's longing for a future of opportunity and hope sets her on course towards a climax at once startling and inevitable.
“The most engaging narrative voice I've come across lately… a darkly hilarious novel.” – Black Morrison, The Guardian
'Blithe and earnest, heartbreaking and humorous… From beginning to end the book is unusually calibrated and incredibly compelling.” -- Sarah Hall, The Guardian
'Told with the slouchy, cool grace of a misfit teen, this sparkly novel is destined to become a coming-of-age classic.' ? Elle
'Wry and saturated with comic invention, A Complicated Kindness possesses one of the strongest fictional voices since Holden Caulfield vented his spleen.' ? Time Out
