PRAISE FOR LOUISE DOUGHTY:
'Dance With Me is a book dotted with vivid observational set pieces, cunningly slotted together...Doughty is a good writer, deft with observational details...This book does dance with you. It holds you, leads you, and twirls you about.' LYNNE TRUSS, SUNDAY TIMES
'Louise Doughty writes about people who don't usually get written about...every bit as skilled as her contemporaries, her writing has a pessimistic edge which makes her books all the funnier. Dance With Me is a painfully accurate record of mating rituals and dating nightmares' INDEPENDENT
‘A thriller, a bit of a ghost story, and a love story. It has pace, style, mystery, excitement’ EVENING STANDARD
