Description
Swallowing Geography by Deborah Levy is a striking early novel that charts the lives of two women, both named J.K., as they travel through Europe in the late 20th century. With a typewriter in a pillowcase, they navigate a world of shifting boundaries and displaced peoples. Through their experiences, Levy offers a sharp and shocking portrayal of a new era, one marked by dislocation and disillusionment. Her writing is both original and thought-provoking, making for a compelling read. Deborah Levy's unique voice and perspective have been praised by critics, who describe her as "an exciting writer" and "a brilliant writer".
