Other People's Beds

In her debut title, Other Peoples Beds, Anna Punsoda shines a light onto the darkest corners of the soul with a clean, sharp prose that is punchy, devastating, and tender at the same time. Punsoda beautifully highlights her protagonist's body, a body that has been carved out of stone by her fathers alcoholism and her mothers frustrated apathy. This characters stolen innocence leads to her to losing herself in other peoples beds. As shocking and sad as it is funny and liberating, Anna Punsodas Other Peoples Beds has won unanimous plaudits in her native Catalonia. This powerful debut is written so beautifully and with such ease and fludity that Punsoda is most definitely one to watch.
