Recensione:
"A sweetly corrupt exploration of the childhood fantasy of running away... Myerson is a beautiful conjurer of subtly disturbing atmospheres...haunting" (Jane Shilling Sunday Telegraph)
"A mythical rite-of-passage novel... mysterious and multi-layered" (Independent)
"Compulsively readable and richly inventive... bittersweet, authentic and loveable" (Guardian)
"Myerson is a surefooted guide along the wobbly line that separates the real from the surreal ... Myerson captures [adolescence] beautifully in Flynn's compelling voice. The opening of the novel is crisp and immediate, the prose simple and direct ...More than just a coming-of-age story, Out of Breath is a timely reminder about the importance of not growing up too quickly" (New Statesman)
"A truly original read, transcending many of the usual boundaries found in fiction" (Scotland on Sunday)
