Novel, 1976Enthralling novel about identity and self-determination, in which narratives are used to explore relationships drawn in sweeping fashion and sometimes bizarre characters interact with occasionally fantastical plot elements. While the ending might feel a little woolly, this is essentially a compelling, empathetic account of the heroine, whose guises and disguises see her running away from herself and constantly, compulsively reinventing herself. A book for literature buffs who can handle seances and characters called The Royal Porcupine.
