'The debut of a writer with enormous talents' Amy Tan

A gun is pointed at 21-year-old Ellis as she walks through a New York park. Although she escapes unharmed she is left psychologically reeling. Over the next few weeks Ellis keeps everyone at bay- the police, suitors who want to save her, and the university therapist who hints that her sweaters are too tight. But when Ellis accompanies her mother, a nurse, on a mission in the Philippines, she finds the life - even if held up - cannot be held back, and neither, finally, can she.

Reviews for And Now You Can Go

The First Lady of Alt Lit * Vogue * Consistently a pleasure to read * Independent on Sunday * A sneakily engaging and ultimately astounding first novel... A delight from the first page to the last * Big Issue * A spare but polished miniature that isn't ashamed to strive for small truths instead of great lumbering ones * New York Times Book Review * Utterly gripping, a book to be read in one sitting * Times Literary Supplement *
