` Perfect` Lena Dunham ` This year`s literary sensation` Evening Standard How far would you travel to become a writer?8000 miles from home 1085 calories a day 3 months to write the novel that would make her name. At least that was the plan. But when Nell Stevens travelled to Bleaker Island in the Falklands (official population: two) she didn`t count on the isolation getting to her... Hilarious & heartbreaking, this is a book about loneliness & creativity. It is about discovering who you are when there`s no one else around. & it`s about what to do when a plan doesn`t work: ultimately Nell may have failed to write a novel, but she succeeded in becoming a writer. ...

` My favourite debut of 2017.. .as funny as it is poignant` Lena Dunham When Nell Stevens was given the opportunity to spend three months in a location of her choice in order to write her novel, she was determined to rid herself of all distractions. So Nell decided to travel to Bleaker Island (official population: two) in the Falklands where she would write 2, 500 words a day. But Bleaker House is not that novel. Instead this is a book about a young woman realising that the way to writing fiction doesn`t necessarily lie in total solitude & a clear plan. Nor does it lie in a daily ration of 1085 calories, no means of contacting the outside world & a slow descent towards something that feels worryingly like madness.. . Hilariously funny, painfully honest, & beautifully observed, Bleaker House is part memoir, part travelogue, part story collection. It is an exploration of the narrow spaces between real life & fiction &, in the end, a book about failing to write a novel, but finally becoming a writer. ...
