Caro Claire Burke received her Master's in Fine Arts from the Bennington Writing Seminars. She is the co-host of Diabolical Lies, a politics and culture podcast. Yesteryear is her first novel.
'A bold and biting satire, Yesteryear examines the power of social media to spin a lie so deep, it turns 'home sweet home' into a prison. Page-turning and illuminating, this caustic look at the tradwife will have you cackling and gasping right to the final page' Nita Prose, Sunday Times bestselling author of The Maid ‘Shot through with humour and yet laced with darkness, Yesteryear had me turning the pages late into the night.’ Clare Mackintosh, Sunday Times bestselling author of I Let You Go 'I could barely put this book down. Such a clever excavation of motherhood and faith and online fame. Highly original and utterly addictive' Louise O'Neill, author of Idol ‘Whenever I wasn’t reading this novel, my thoughts were circling it feverishly, desperate to get back. Yesteryear is unapologetically political fiction in the tradition of The Stepford Wives or The Handmaid’s Tale. Enraging, thrilling—often grimly funny in the way of good satire, but still intensely humane. Easily one of my favourites of the year’ Hannah Deitch, author of Killer Potential
