Natalie is uncomfortable in herself. Her most recent relationship is long since over, and she is disillusioned with her career as a teacher.
So she packs her bags and goes travelling in hope of finding a place for herself in the world. But her isolation abroad only heightens her sense of unease. Obsessed with how others perceive her, she recoils from relationships and eats - compulsively and self-destructively, to silence the anxious voice in her head that never seems satisfied.
Skin engages powerfully with issues of self and belonging via an incredibly beguiling protagonist - intelligent and self-aware, sharp and acute.
'Engrossing... Unvarnished, wry and almost wincingly clear-eyed, the narrative covers acres of emotional terrain - from comedy, to tragedy, and the churned-up borderlands in between' Daily Mail.
