The first book in the trilogy "Living Autobiography" by Deborah Levy focuses on writing and female identity. "Essential. Like finding an oasis, you want to drink it slowly... Wonderful, unpredictable, amazing" - Guardian.

Drawing inspiration from George Orwell's famous essay "Why I Write," Deborah Levy offers her own valuable thoughts on a writer's life. With humor and clarity, she examines how the woman writer must claim this contested space as a young woman and shape it appropriately. "Things I Don’t Want to Know" is a work of remarkable clarity and deep psychological insight, from one of the most important contemporary writers.

The last two volumes of Deborah Levy's "Living Autobiography," "The Cost of Living" and "Real Estate," are now available.

"Excessive sharpness and originality of imagination. An inspired work of writing" - Marina Warner. "An enthusiastic writer, sharp and shocking like the knives wielded by her characters" - Sunday Times. "A writer whose anger and confusion in the face of the world transform into poetic flights of imagination... that always seem wonderfully right" - Independent.
