Reviews
Praise for Martin John "This is a very moving and terrific book."-- Daniel Handler (alias Lemony Snicket) "Profane, strange, hilarious, and necessary, Martin John is a beguiling triumph."-- Patrick deWitt, author of The Sisters Brothers "This is literature serving its most essential function: illuminating the darkest recesses; dragging the unspoken and suppressed to the foreground of our consciousness; throwing light across the blackest of humanity's vistas. This is writing at its most fearless: visceral and searing, yet textured and nuanced; the darkest of comedy and the deepest of insight, combined in a manner unique to Anakana Schofield." -- Donal Ryan, author of The Thing About December and The Spinning Heart "Possessed of a bitingly acerbic voice influenced by Beckett, Joyce, and O'Casey, Schofield offers a sardonic, funny, and stylistically innovative breath of fresh air to a literature that too often feels starved for oxygen."-- The Quill & Quire Praise for Schofield's Malarky "A fine first novel."-- Margaret Atwood "A word of warning regarding this one of a kind tale of a woman's endeavours to accept the realities of her life on their own terms- mid-guffaw you may find that you've taken it all most intensely to heart. I read Malarky over a year ago and Our Woman is still with me, so the process is probably irreversible."-- Helen Oyeyemi, author of Mr Fox " Malarky is a terrific read, a brilliant collision of heartbreak and hilarity written in a voice that somehow seems both feral and perfectly controlled. Anakana Schofield's Our Woman takes a cool nod at Joyce, then goes her own way in one of the most moving and lyrical debut novels I've read."-- Jess Walter, author of " Beautiful Ruins "A caustic, funny, and moving fantasia of an Irish mammy going round the bend."-- Emma Donoghue, author of Room "Anakana Schofield is part of a new wave of wonderful Irish fiction - international in scope and electrically alive."-- Colum McCann "Good writing and dark wit always excite me and they come together thrillingly in this book. It has a quiet grip on the strangeness of the interior and exterior worlds of love and politics. I delighted in the writing and the scope." -- Jenny Diski, author of What I Don't Know About Animals "A refreshing rejection of the escapist fantasy that dominates much of our cultural life... I greatly enjoyed this novel, and I admire Schofield's ability to pull off something so difficult with charm and brio."-- Marina Lewycka, Guardian "Both blackly comic and deeply felt. There is something heroic about the desperate resilience of Our Woman, and the originality of her depiction by Schofield, that leaves an indelible trace on the reader's mind."-- Sunday Telegraph "'Our Woman' is either utterly mad or scarily sane, a uniquely distinctive voice in a funny and perceptive trip into the off-key oddness of rural life." -- Irish Times , Best Books of 2013 "Brilliant... laced with dark wit and quirky lyricism, this is a striking portrait of a society in flux and a woman on the edge."-- Mail on Sunday, Praise for Martin John "The novel all your favourite novelists will be reading."-- The Globe & Mail "This is a very moving and terrific book."-- Daniel Handler (alias Lemony Snicket) "Profane, strange, hilarious, and necessary, Martin John is a beguiling triumph."-- Patrick deWitt, author of The Sisters Brothers "This is literature serving its most essential function: illuminating the darkest recesses; dragging the unspoken and suppressed to the foreground of our consciousness; throwing light across the blackest of humanity's vistas.

Synopsis
Finalist for the 2015 Giller Prize Among The National Post's Top 5 Books of 2015 Among The Toronto Star's Top 5 Fiction Books of 2015 Among Largehearted Boy 's Favourite Novels of 2015 One of Quill & Quire's Books of the Year, 2015 Among The Edmonton Journal's Top 5 Books of 2015 A 49th Shelf Book of the Year, 2015 Among NOW Toronto's Top 10 Books of 2015 Martin John's mam says that she is glad he is done with it. But is Martin John done with it? He says he wants it to stop, his mother wants it to stop, we all want it to stop. But is it really what Martin John wants? He had it in his mind to do it and he did it. Harm was done when he did it. Harm would continue to be done. Who will stop Martin John? Will you stop him? Should she stop him? From Anakana Schofield, the brilliant author of the bestselling Malarky , comes a darkly comic novel circuiting through the mind, motivations and preoccupations of a character many women have experienced but few have understood quite so well. The result confirms Schofield as one of the bravest and most innovative authors at work in English today. Anakana Schofield is an Irish-born writer, who won the Amazon.ca First Novel Award and the Debut-Litzer Prize for Fiction in 2013 for her debut novel Malarky ., Delving into the disturbed mind of a serial sex-offender, Martin John is a brilliant follow-up to Anakana Schofield's celebrated Malarky .
