What to expect

Tender, brutal, devastating, OVERSPILL is the debut novel from incredible new literary talent, Charlotte Paradise, perfect for fans of Sally Rooney and Coco Mellors

'This book will break your heart, mend it, and send you away with hope' Lucy Rose, author of The Lamb

'Paradise brings the reader on a journey of both pleasure and pain' Madeline Docherty, author of Gender Theory

‘With fluid prose reminiscent of both Jessica Andrews' watercolour-esque writing and Coco Mellors' sculpted syntax’ Jessie Elland, author of The Ladie Upstairs

*********************************************

Sara is twenty-five. She has never used a tampon without having a panic attack.

She starts dating Miles. For three months, they don’t touch. Miles respects her boundaries, though he longs for them to melt away. Sara desires Miles, but she knows her body, or rather she knows it is an unknowable thing.

Sara wants to be in love, to find a person who allows her to be herself. Someone who is happy with everything she is and everything she isn’t. Miles hopes he won’t hurt her.

But how do you navigate a relationship for which there is no blueprint? How do you love someone when your body is not your own, and how do you reclaim it?
