Critics Review
Debut novels don’t get much better than this … Little Wild is a study of sex, money and class between the wars and much more, gradually asserting its glorious weirdness with relish and masterful control – Erin Kelly, author of The House of Mirrors
Little Wild is a country house novel with claws. Told in spiky, glittering prose, Laura Evans brings us into a world of simmering class tensions and long-buried secrets. As Margaret and Joanie’s plan unravels in the sweltering, claustrophobic heat, the novel shapeshifts into something almost mythical in its beauty and strangeness – Danielle Giles, author of Mere
Stylish and seething, Little Wild brews a singular magic. Evans’ world is ripe with wild and wicked gifts – I was a captive until the very end – Rebecca Fallon, author of Family Drama
A beguiling gothic debut, reminiscent of Du Maurier. Absolutely mesmerising – Lucy Rose, author of The Lamb
