We all have our favourite demons. Adamant of his own sanity, Hamlet chatters away to his oldest friend - the squat skull grinning in his palm. A desperate Romeo circles the bushes below Juliet's balcony, hoping for a glimpse of her bare body, 'nipples stiffening on powdered ribs'.
All the while, weaved throughout this collection, the narrator is haunted by her biggest demon of all: the gargantuan Small. Andromache screams for her only child, 'spiralling like sycamore' from the walls of Troy, her husband brutally dragged to death in the dirt that rises around her. Told with a rawness and honesty that sears, the secretive nature of living with an eating disorder is yanked out into the open and given the voice that only ever hisses darkly inside the skull.
Through relationship breakdowns, bath-times, the cacophonous dazzle of Delhi and the fug of hospital waiting rooms, Small is always,
