Amy Twigg has been selected by The Observer for their list of ‘Best new novelists for 2024’ for her highly anticipated debut, Spoilt Creatures. The annual list shines a spotlight on the best authors based in the UK and Ireland; previous authors chosen by The Observer include Sally Rooney, Louise Kennedy and Douglas Stewart.
Set in a close-knit community of women living in the South Downs, Spoilt Creatures has already received rave reviews in the build up to its release. Described by Kiran Millwood Hargrave as ‘heady with the possibilities of language and the righteousness of female rage,’ and ‘lush and dreamlike’ by Colin Walsh, Twigg examines sisterhood, obsession and transgression through these women and the men who disturb their peace.
Spoilt Creatures will be published by Tinder Press on June 6th.
