Oranges Are Not The Only Fruit
Oranges Are Not The Only Fruit
Jeanette Winterson
What Douglas Stuart Says: A real British classic. It’s the story of a young girl growing up in the north of England after being adopted by very devout, Pentecostal parents. Jeanette is being raised into the missionary life but she starts to develop sexual attraction towards other women and after the church finds out, they try to exorcise the demons from her.
What They Say: “Many consider her to be the best living writer in this language... In her hands, words are fluid, radiant, humming” - Evening Standard
