Product Description

Review
** 'She is the eternal female vagabond, somewhere between the gypsy and the lunatic, with the freedom, pain and visionary nature of both' AMANDA CRAIG, DAILY TELEGRAPH ** 'Told from the perspective of an intelligent woman with acute powers of observation. Her writing is vivid and sardonic by turns, the period brought to life with accounts of clothes and meals, whose importance Roberts (unlike many other writers) has always understood.' JOAN SMITH, INDEPENDENT ** 'Roberts's sensuous, uninhibited, often beautiful writing is filled with lush and lavish descriptions of food and places and people and love affairs.' JESSICA MANN, LITERARY REVIEW ** 'The 12 novels she has produced... are remarkable imaginings of houses and landscapes and the desire for aquisition. This beguiling memoir travels the rootlessness that inspired them.' PENNY PERRICK, SUNDAY TIMES ** 'Radical politics, feminist theatre troupes, demos, communes, all while smoking and drinking her head off. Paper Houses is an honest, moving account of a talented woman fighting to prioritise her life-goals and roles.' METRO
