About this product

Product Information

'Like most people I lived for a long time with my mother and father. My father liked to watch the wrestling, my mother liked to wrestle; it didn't matter what' Oranges Are Not the Only Fruit 'Like most people I lived for a long time with my mother and father. My father liked to watch the wrestling, my mother liked to wrestle; it didn't matter what' This is the story of Jeanette, adopted and brought up by her mother as one of God's elect. Zealous and passionate, she seems destined for life as a missionary, but then she falls for one of her converts. At sixteen, Jeanette decides to leave the church, her home and her family, for the young woman she loves. Innovative, punchy and tender, Oranges Are Not the Only Fruit is a few days ride into the bizarre outposts of religious excess and human obsession. 'Witty. extraordinary and exhilarating' The Times 'She is a master of her material, a writer in whom great talent abides' Vanity Fair 'Many consider her to be the best living writer in this language... In her hands, words are fluid, radiant, humming' Evening Standard 'A novel that deserves revisiting' Observer 'A wonderful rites-of-passage novel' Mariella Frostrup

    Excellent seller! The book has been immediately shipped and arrived very fast. It was in excellent condition, still in its protective plastic wrap, and very well packaged. I couldn’t find the tracking number and had to contact the seller. They replied promptly with all the necessary information. I highly recommend them.

    as described, fast delivery. Packaging inadequate for a heavy expensive boxset (thin cardboard sleeve with no bubblewrap or protective material) so the set arrived damaged. Customer service were quick to respond however, and sent a partial refund.

    Read the book, and you will understand the title.

    I’m only a few pages in, but it’s a great read for me quite evocative of my own young years in the north of England. It’s thought provoking even in the first few pages.
